I think Patience is wondering if it would work for her, bank robbery that is :)

Default picture for my friend John

He's Dem and I'm Rep, so I have to give him both sides :)

Can you believe this place is 250 years old? Don't tell me, I know :)

This boiling pot is made by a natural contour in the bottom of the river

Pretty cool to watch

There are several places that capitalize on the geothermal waters.

I highlighted this one because I was standing in front of it.

Across the street from the boiling pool


Time to stash the souveniers

Soda Springs has a geyser that is even more faithful than Old Faithful

The Chuck Wagon has been our go to place for the first couple of days.

Sherm has friends everywhere, if he doesn't, he'll make them

This morning, he was stuck with Patience and me

She's become a big eater.

Sherm finished his too!

I left half of my plate

The restaurant is called 78 Main   there was quite the discussion as to why

Totally self-contained!

I think this little guy thought he was a Mini too

One they were successful with


Patience patiently waiting for grandpa 

While waiting for the geyser to erupt I took a few pictures of the colored minerals deposits


When people would get too close to the geyser, they would get a new home very close to it





It goes off at the top of every hour to the second






Sharon and Magellen confirming where we are.

Eric and Patience trying to figure out how long until we get back


Bear Lake, a small pond in the NE Corner of Utah





Riding over Logan Pass I would photograph what ever when stopped for road construction. Would you just look at that fence!

Would you just look at those people waiting to go

Come on Grandpa, everyone in front of us is leaving

 


On this trip, I was the only two wheeler

It didn't make a lot of difference since the roads were pretty mild

We stopped in Logan, UT for a quick bite at Arby's

Sharon seems to be getting a lot out of this rally

Little Patience is putting the food away on this trip


Grabbing a few pictures at the stops for road work

I never could figure this fence out as long as I looked at it. Doesn't look like a snow fence, but just ends so animals can easily go around it.

Lotta waiting going on. Could be a Jerry Lee Lewis song

It's Monday morning and I'm all excited to load the bime at 5:00 AM this morning, but I noticed that the trailer tire seemed a little low after I had just set the pressures in both of them plus the spare the night before. Wouldn't you know Murphy's law had to prove itself right again and I was faced changing out to the spare and plugging the main tire in the sidewall so we could get going. It was in the low 90's even at five in the morning. Oh well, she's all fixed now and as soon as I have a nice shower and change out of my sweaty clothes, we can roll. We were only 23 minutes late from our planned departure time. Our goal for the day was to make it to Beatty, NV. We did so after a short stop and visit with Sherm and Pat and a good Mexican Lunch. Beatty already had a very good BBQ next to the Exchange Club, but now there is another little one across the street. Eddie continues to add his unique and unrealated artwork to the exterior of the Exchange Club. The gir...

Our first view of Mt. Reindeer At white pass, she climbed the mountain but was afraid to come back down In act she climbed everything at every stop. At least we were able to see the mountain. Rose and I saw very little of it the next day. I think she is trying to make the tree look big My pillow a stone Since we were driving by we stopped to see our old house. Running full speed on these rock walls is just normal activity I'm not going to caption all of these photos because I just want to keep them as special memories if my little Shannon. On Monday evening we all wen to El Mirador for dinner Our first view of Mt. Reindeer My Granddaughter and her little famiily having dinner with us LillyMae Mine and Shannon's biggest ride together. She loves the adult size plate of rice and beans. The whole family Our annual tradition

  I'm starting this blog very late in the year. At 77 I'm starting to slow down and the health needs of both I and my wife are affecting our ability run around. After a summer of doctor appointments that never seemed to end we are finally released to hit the road, probably for our very last time. In order to do so, this year I will be towing the Gold Wing behind my truck. I've pretty much taken it out of service as a handyman vehicle and it will now just be a regular rig. It's currently 107 degrees so I will wait until tomorrow to load the bike and all of our gear. It will be funny having all of this room. We are both excited of getting away from these 117 degree days that we have been having. The good Lord willing we will get a little spring back in our step as the days become cooler. More to follow.
