End of the road ( for this trip )

Well as the saying goes all things come to an end. So too with this RV trip. We are currently in IONA Idaho, just outside Idaho Falls. I will be flying into Dallas DFW on July the 10th so that I can head down to Columbia South America on the 13th to join with my new boat/crew on the 14th. That will be a whole other story I am sure... For one thing I am going into it with less then a joyful feeling. This post will be of my five favorite photos of the trip that is ending.. Not in any special order.. Hope you find them as interesting as I do.

Leaving Fort Benton MT

Woke up to rain and cold weather today, not what you want to drive in. After walking the dogs and checking the weather forecast we packed up the RV and hit the road hoping the forecast was going to be right and it would clear by late morning.

Sometime around 10am the rain stopped and we had semi clear skis. So was able to get some photos of the road and what was along the way. Needed to get some supplies for both us and the pets so when a Wal Mart came along we pulled in and stopped. Went in and picked up what was needed, and came out to rain. Storm had caught up to us. Turned around and went back into Wal Mart for lunch ( Subway ) to wait out the worse of the rain.

Once back on the road we made our way to our chosen camp area for the night. We will stay overnight in the dirt lot of a small restaurant called the 4B's off I-90 in Deer Lodge Mt... We have no hookups so internet is battery run only... Might be able to recharge at McDonnell's later tonight or tomorrow morning.. For now enjoy the photos of today's drive.

Just my luck

Going to make a long story very short... Drove from Tucson to Phoenix and visited a friend. Then drove to Casa Grande and stayed the night in a parking lot of a casino.. Today we drove all the way to the four corners area planing a trip to the four corner monument in the morning... Wellllllllll as my luck would have it the bloody thing is closed this year for some sort of work.. Best we can do is a drive by and wave at it... I will not take photos from a moving RV anymore... have to take too many to get one good one.. So we are here in Another casino parking lot.. this one is set up for RV's and does have internet.. so it is okay.... Name of the town is something like tocoma ???? who knows.. so ends days nine and ten... stay turned for more fun and adventure who knows might even stop sometime and get photos..

Night after leaving the four corners area ( that was closed ) found our way to a small out of the way RV park in Del Norte Co.. Name of the place is Woods and River RV Park.. It has internet, it just does not work... so no blog, facebook or anything else got updated. Did see deer during our early morning walk with the dogs along with a duck. Very nice place to visit, would do it again .... would like internet next time...

Next day was driving thru the mountains.. after a stop at the great dunes of Colorado.. It was windy and cold at the dunes, and windy and bloody cold going thru the mountains... All photos are being posted on facebook at this time.. Ended up just south of Colorado Springs at a Wal Mart for the night....

Today all we did was get to Colorado Springs, and found a RV park that had working internet.. Was going to do the Cog train to Pikes Peek, but it still is not going to the summit so crossed it off list until some other time.. Not sure were we go from here, just think it should be South, or SE, SW.....
