Per special request from my ORS friend, Houston – the weather this morning in Missoula, MT… 55 partly sunny, partly cloudy degrees at 8:36 a.m. – was in the mid-40’s overnight.\u00a0\u00a0Couldn’t resist taking a photo of this little sign….\u00a0\"Flower<\/p>\n

Starting a little late this morning as I’m headed east before the turn south and don’t like driving into the sun.\u00a0 Also stopping just up the road for tire pressure check and propane so I imagine probably 10-10:30 before I really start making progress.\u00a0 Shooting for Pocatello\u00a0or South.<\/p>\n

6:00 p.m. – didn’t make Pocatello or South…getting air in tires and propane was quick but hit wind in Monida Pass and beyond and slowed down…then just got tired so stopped.\u00a0 I saw a sign for Western Wings\u00a0RV Park – middle of nowhere about 20 miles north of Idaho Falls.\u00a0 I got off – 2 Alphas got off from the other direction…sign said 3 1\/2 miles…off we all go…arrived at the park which also has a bird\/clay pigeon shooting range\/lodge and you could see the RV spots and the power pedastals but not a single rig in the place.\u00a0 We all pull in 1-2-3… no one jumps out…finally I get out and go talk to them – everyone is dithering about staying but group dynamics and we are all tired win…we check in.\u00a0 VERY nice people, full hookups for $21.60 – quiet and pretty – lots of grass fields around, pond.\u00a0 It is blowing about 30 mph but I imagine it will calm down as evening progresses.\u00a0 A 5vr came in shortly after.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Weather – 20 miles north of Idaho Falls at 6:54 p.m. – Windy!!!, 82 and sunny.<\/p>\n
