Date line Lewiston, ID Sunny clear 34 degrees


We are blogging today because we got in late last night and did a load of laundry before bed. We have missed our destination schedule by about 200 miles because of the mountain driving. When we left Butte yesterday we were greeted by 4 inches of wet sloppy snow. It was just a beautiful back drop to the mountains. We drove out of Butte and then hit mountain driving and stayed in the mountains all day.





Once we reached the Idaho border it was at Lolo pass where it was snowing giant balls of sleet. We came down the mountains where we encountered signs that said maximum speed 25 miles per hour for the next 99 miles. We also drove to Oregon to be eligible for another refrigerator magnet which was 40 miles south of Clarkston, Wa. It took us two hours to drive 80 miles because of mountainous driving.





We saw a little wildlife along the way.
Well as I am blogging Aggie is showering and then we will be off. Today we except to reach Canada.

That's all for this morning.

Out
