Our first night spent in the state of Idaho was more of a stop over really. Troy had been driving all day and we were pretty much over it when we came upon Three Islands State Park. The park was the site of the Oregon Trail River Crossing. Think back to high school history and I am sure all the details of the river crossing will come rushing back to you. Well maybe not and this is not meant to be a history lesson for you the reader however the park did have a new visitors center/museum dedicated to the river crossing which gave us a glimpse into the lives of the people who took part in the trek cross country. We will stick with our RV, horse and buggy are not for us!
The next day we stumbled across Wolcott State Park, very pretty, on a lake, a great place to relax with the puppies. Not too much to do outside of Idaho Falls and we were not in a rush as we were headed into the "city" to service the RV on Monday so we enjoyed the sunshine and the views of the area.
The weather turned on us and became cold and windy, yuck. Idaho Falls did not have much for us to occupy our time with as we waited for our Oil Change and routine maintenance to be completed. Funny how real life still applies even while on our little adventure! The main reason we were in Idaho Falls was to pick up Gelene and Trent (Troy's mom and brother) from the airport as they were accompanying us to Yellowstone and Glacier National Park the following day. More guests, yippee!!!
