It's bad here too. The news said it would be this way until the winds shift Fri.

Drive safely.

Smokey here in Twin Falls, but doesn't smell like smoke. Real long trek
today. 142 miles. Lots of hills but traffic was light.

Next stop, Kaysville, Utah. Will check out Zion and Bryce this weekend, if the smoke isn't too bad.

Ooms and prayers for those needing them. Be safe ya'll.

It is smokey in B.C. the last few days too. The wind blows one way and we get BC wildfire smoke, and the other way we get U.S. fire smoke.

It's been really smoky here, but I can't smell any. The good news is that it shaved 11 degrees off today's forecasted high from 94 to 83. The sky has that eerie orange color.

Made it home after one Month on the Road

Thanks to all the Mutants for the Hospitality in Idhana. We had a great time and our Pink Flamingo shows us the way now.

Before we left last Tuesday we visited Silver Falls, spent a night in Corvallis with Teri's cousin, also the Air and Space museum. Nice to get out of the heavy smoke. On the way back it was headlights on super smokey until after Bend. We spent two nights in Boise ID, and boon docked two nights in the Snake River Canyon Wyoming. Saw the Teton's and had Dinner in Jackson. Two more days in Laramie for the Son's Birthday, and Arrived home yesterday to a dead hot water heater in the house so still taking showers in the RV in the driveway.
The smoke followed us home the whole way, but its better in Colorado Today.

I figured out what I don't have in the RV that I don't miss - A bathroom scale.
Could a RVM number be in our future?

Thanks Again
Joe & Teri

RVM164 comes to mind when I read ^^^....

Hey Joe. Hey Terri!
What a great journey you two were on!

It was good to see youse two again. Looks like we'll be in Vegas a couple nights around the 20th. One or more of your relatives will be there too. Reminds me of someone's birthday party.

So here's the deal... you're sworn in, certified, and duly appointed RVM164!

Now tell tell the other kids something about yourselves. Inquiring mutants wanna know...
