We enjoyed having Tony come out to the RV park and spend the day with us. Of course, the kid drove 40 minutes in the wrong direction thinking we were in Mountain Home KOA instead of Meridian KOA! He wasn't smart enough to read his Grandma's email telling him where we were before he set out this morning. No worries, he made it, we had a nice lunch and then relaxed hanging out at the RV. It is so super catching up with him and his life here at Boise State. Can't believe he's been here two years already! He's going to spend the night with us, too. So great to have him here! Even Maggie thinks it's pretty wonderful. We weren't here when Tony got here and Maggie even let him in the RV to wait for us. Amazing. I didn't think she would let anyone in. Maggie has found a buddy!

While we were waiting for Tony this morning (and why we weren't home when he got here), we went to Camping World and got the parts for Roger to finish his repairs. Yay!! All done and best of all we won't need service when we get home.
Another fire - Rog took this from the roof of the RV last night. Boise is between us and that mountain. Tonight there are lots of tents set up here in the KOA for firefighters. The air was smoky today and the local news said that the fire was no where near contained.
So, tomorrow we head south to Winnemucca, NV for the night and hope there are no fires on our route. Last time we drove it, the area was black from a previous fire but there's been enough time to get some vegetation back to burn once again. Even without the black scorched earth, it's an ugly drive through the desert and we aren't looking forward to it one bit, but it's the shortest way home.
US 95 between Boise and Winnemucca is very ugly, smoke or no smoke. The scenery actually improves (as well as the speed limit) once you cross the Nevada state line. I look forward to seeing you once you return.
