Iowas Trip Saturday

Saturday
Yes, it didn’t rain. It was a cool night, but not a cold night. I woke up and walked to the top of a nearby bluff. This area begs to have me take a walk-about to the top of these ridges just to show off the sights. We packed up and left by about 7:00. On the way out we saw, what I think was the same Pronghorn antelope that we saw coming in near the road. We took off on a well-maintained gravel road 49 miles to the nearest paved road. It was pretty neat. It is a barren high desert environment complete with varied wildlife. We saw about 5 more pronghorns on the way out. We drove down a really pretty river canyon on our way to Idaho. We stayed at an RV park in Caldwell, ID. There is a pretty little lake in the middle of the park. It blew and rained pretty hard at night but we didn't get picked up and dropped in the lake or get wet so it was a pretty good night. I'll bet Lewis and Clark or the Oregon Trail pioneers would have given a lot of money for a nyon tent like ours with a good rainfly.
