Road Trip


Tuesday night began our big move to Idaho. Thanks so much to everyone who came over to help load the Penske. We already miss ya'll! All of our stuff really fit into a 16 x 10 ft van.



Day 1:
We barely made it out of TX. It is so big! We spent the night at a campground in New Mexico.



There was a pretty scary dinosaur outside our cabin, but we didn't let that stop our fun.



Day 2:
We drove all of the way through Colorado to the border of Wyoming. Thanks Ryan for the driving tips. We saw a volcano, drove 35 mph up a mountain, and saw Pikes Peak (we think). So is that Pike's Peak? The big white hill. (see below)




Day 3:
We drove through Wyoming. A man at the gas station said, "You better be careful. Sometimes the winds on that interstate will blow trucks over."
"Oh my goodness" said me.



So we kept driving and driving and driving and driving until we reached Montana where we set up tent for the night.


Day 4:
I made it through my first night sleeping in a tent, and Bennett drove over the Continental Divide in Montana. However, I did not know because I was snoozing. We saw our first sign that gave our destination to Coeur D'Alene. "Woo Hoo!!" we said loudly. One more day to go.
