Coeur D'Alene,ID. 9/20/15

We went on some curvy mountain roads today. Bob was tired. We are a few miles from Spokane, Washington and tomorrow we cross the state to travel the shore route, the Cascades and down
towards Oregon,also along the coast. Everyone says it is beautiful. That will take a few days. We just spent 2days in Idaho,which is probably the most amazing state. Pure beauty, wild, great rugged mountains, snow peaked and high, we loved it and where we stayed was 1st. class,on the Salmon River. I think it was my favorite State so far.
The days are flying by too fast. I am at the laundry facility at the campground. That also is part of camping.
I hope all of you are doing well. I still cannot receive e-mails on my IPad. I can on my phone though, same e- mail address.
The Yellowstone area was cut short because of the weather there. It rained heavily the last day in Grand Teton and continued driving up to Yellowstone all day and that night. The next morning, 34°,we decided to leave because they were telling us to expect freezing temperatures and snow. We had snow squalls driving through "The Old Faithful" and saw some animals and steam in many hot volcanic areas but it was cold, wet, and slick driving. We are happy we left. What we saw of it was wonderful. The park facilities was closing the 20th. for the season.
I can't say yet when we will start going east. After Washington and Oregon, I think the thought of home will be strong. Enjoy this fall period. It is the cream of New England. Best regards to all.
Lee Ann and Bob
