386 miles from Boise is Island Park, Idaho only 20 miles from the West Yellowstone entrance. We rolled into our Redrock RV campground at half three and were set up by half four (English, you know). Views of the mountains on all sides as we rest in a peaceful valley. 5 miles off the main road is a good place to be this time of year. We visited Big Springs after dinner the headwaters of Henry’s Fork River and the Snake River. Last Sunday we visited Big Springs (Kitch it e Kip e) in Manistique, Michigan, headwaters of Indian Lake. Looking for moose in the river tonight but none to be seen. Did see an antelope, a pelican, and mother duck with her swarm of ducklings. Good to be out of the city and in the lap of nature again. Biking and Hiking tomorrow, so it must be Friday.
Weighed in this morning at 20,500 pounds with full tank of diesel and empty sewer tank. 8,000 for truck (the rattler), Jet, Suzy and I and 12,500 for the 5th Wheeler (the snake). Amazing how quickly we got used to towing the rig. Mileage went from 18 mpg without snake to 11.5 mpg with it. Suzy has yet to find her first book store on the journey. Tom has the Kindle so he is only a few seconds from the Kindle Bookstore.
