Idaho Falls Idaho

Alright, so what about Idaho Falls. Well, first it is right on the Snake River. The river passes right thru it. With many walking and cycling paths next to it. There is also a series of falls, which power hydro-dams. These falls were built back in the 80's, and continue to this day generating electricity. 


I am not going into the Nuclear facility within 45 miles, so don't ask.


Our spot was located just a few miles south of downtown. Called South Tourist Park (Press Here for Info), a city park.

$15 a night dry camping with a common dump and water. 







Saturday, turned out to be a cloudy but wonderful day to visit the Farmers Market down-town. It also proved to be a good photo op day.







Anyone remember what these doors were used for?

Blackfoot Idaho - April 28 - 30

 Our stay in Blackfoot lasted 2 days - of sunny weather. Weather warm for a 4 mile walk-a-bout town. Our site was very large, with 50 amps and water, $20/nite. Very large green grass in front, as we choose to park the opposite direction. 



Dakota and I have been doing 2 miles in the morning with another 2 miles with Susan and Tilly. Tilly will sometimes come along with Dakota and me.

Blackfoot is in the heart of Potato Country, 50% of the potatoes from Idaho are grown in the eastern region. So a stop in at the Potato Museum is well worth it. Especially to try the Potato Ice Cream. 

You can easily walk from the park to the Museum, as it is only 1.5 miles meandering thru town. Walmart is the same, 1.3 miles from RV park. 

You can get around very easily. We also went exploring to Wolverine Canyon. I don't know if we really found it, as we traveled thru farm fields, cattle and horse ranches until we enter into BLM country. 

We choose not to engage in the local restaurants, nor did we find a local coffee shop. 

Our drive to the city was easily done with 1 driver change out. Susan, has been taking a more active approach to connecting the Ford to the RV. As we both need to keep our practice up.

Travel Day - Blackfoot Idaho

Wednesday, it's time we get on the road. Can't stay any longer as the Lodge is hosting the State Elections of Elks in Utah.

Where will we change drivers, puppy walk, and more coffee. Once back on the road, I had time to capture a few photos of the scenery.


You might say, what can you see on an Interstate? Well, all it takes is a willingness and a camera.



















As you can see, Dakota was very busy.
