June 10 - Snug in the camper

The transition to digital TV has been giving Mom grey hairs! This morning I got technical support on the line – Richard – and we solved all her sound problems.

After morning tea Rob and I decided to hitch up the camper but every time we went outside it started raining. After three attempts we finally got organized and on the road. I have never been north of Salt Lake and found it to be really pretty. The drive to Hot Lava Springs, ID was short but we hit many rain showers.

We found a campsite and while I was checking in Mike and Rob set the camper up. What a joy to have such good helpers. Ant likes to watch Rocky while we do the hard labor. Once the bikes were off loaded we explored the town. We are looking forward to spending time in the hot springs tomorrow.

It is quite cold – where is summer?

The boys have just returned from racing around town on their bike course they devised. A lovely path parallels the stream from one end of town to the other. Now Rob, Mike and Rocky are going to climb the hill behind us. They should get a good view to the west. We are close to a railroad and are wondering how late the trains will run – they are pretty loud.

Mom supplied dinner - left overs from last night. Thanks. The sky is dark with heavy rain clouds and the roof is starting to "sing" with the rain hitting it. I am glad I am in a camper and not under canvas. Off to bed and a good book.
