500 Miles

Lately, when I start to write these journal entries, songs seem to come to my mind.  Today it is the Peter, Paul and Mary song, 500 Miles.  Maybe it is because we drove 555 miles from Beaver, UT to Nampa, ID on I-15 and I-84.

This morning we had breakfast at the same Crazy Cow Café.  Those folks are focused on service and good food.  Knowing that we had a long way to travel, we were on the road earlier than usual.  Unfortunately time constraints kept us from stopping in Salt Lake City, about 200 miles from Beaver.  When we spotted the Idaho line, we just pulled off on the shoulder of I-84 to take photos.  At one of the rest stops shortly thereafter we saw this sign about Lake Bonneville.

There just isn’t much to tell about this day since there were limited stops…only for gas and other “necessities”.
