I left Henderson about 8:30 with no specific goal for the day of driving. I hopped back on I-515 through Vegas, then went north on I-15 to where US-93 and I-15 separate. I drove US-93 north to where it turns east, then switched to US-318 and US-6 to reconnect to US-93 at Ely. I took US-93 north to Twin Falls, Idaho, where it connects with I-84. I still had gas in the tank, so I pressed on to Mountain Home, Idaho, exiting where there were several places to stay right off the freeway. The first place I tried,the Best Western, was booked, but the Fairfield next door was not, so I stayed there, unloaded, then went to the restaurant in between the two hotels.
When I woke up the next morning it was pouring down rain. The rain persisted through most of Idaho, but by the time I hit Oregon, it has stopped. The rest of the way was boring but uneventful. I rolled into Kennewick about one o’clock to find that Beth had cleared my garage spot. So I pulled into it and was greeted by a four-legged critter at the door, and a two-legged daughter with a hug. It is good to be home.
