Home Again
We left Salt Lake Sunday around 8 AM. Everywhere between there and home the temps were projected to be over 100 degrees so we decided to drive all the way home. It took about 15 hours. We arrived home at about 10:45 PM.
The last two days were spent cleaning the motorhome, sorting through two months worth of mail,and restarting our newspaper. Today I will pay the bills and then I can relax for a day or so.
Pictures are of the glacier tour from Whittier.

Still in Pocotello

Pocotello Idaho
Well I finally got to an RV park with a usable Wi_Fi. I caught up on my email from a week ago. As indicated above we are in Pocotello Idaho. Tomorrow we will drive to Salt Lake City to see Ryan and Monica. The trip back has been slow until we hit Hwy 15 in Montana. SWe were averaging 40 mph and now it is closer to 60 mph. Gas ia $2.78/gal vs 1.29/liter in Canada. Food at the restaraunts is also about half price. If you want to know what long term liberalism will do to a country, visit Canada. Hamburger are $10, gas the equivalent of $4+ pr gallon. You pay taxes on postage stamps, beer is $13 per six pack. Medical treatment is free if you can get in to see a doctor. Don't try to give them a medicare card, its cash only.(rant over). It sure was good to get back into the States.
On our way back from Watson Lake to Ft Nelson we were traveling with Jim and Gail and Dee and Mike. Mike was leading and we pulled into a rest area. At the far end (100 yards away) we saw a grizzly bear. He walked around a bit and then acted like he was going into the woods. We drove down to where he had been and he came back out of the woods. We drove back to the other end of the ret area and Dee and got out withour cameras. The bear started walking towards us andf when he got about 50 feet away we retreated to our vehicles. He wnt up to Mike and Dees vehicle and put his paws on a storage box at the back of their rig. Mike drove forward and the bear started towards our MH. I was hanging out the door to get him comming around the corner but Pat made me shut the door. He sniffed our tires front and back and then went into the woods. (see pictures)
