"North to Alaska" is finally happening!

We left California March 4th and have spent some terrific times with lots of Family and friends from Texas to Oklahoma to Kansas. In Oklahoma we began having problems with the Chevy truck and ended up trading for a 2010 Ford 250.






After leaving Kansas, we spent a few days at Teton Valley Campground where we worked last summer. We had two beautiful snows while we were there and enjoyed spending time with our friend Gary.

















A beautiful view of the Grande Teton with table mountain in front covered with snow. We enjoyed this view so much last summer, had to drive over past Driggs to see it again before leaving the area.





We left Victor, ID and headed for Montana on Friday, April 29, one of the back springs on the trailer broke. We sat in the truck along the road and watched the blowing snow for several hours. It was hard to drive behind this tow truck and watch the trailer bounce around on this flatbed trailer. The wind was blowing and it looked like it would go over the side at anytime. We finally made it to Idaho Falls and camped in the RV Dealers parking lot until Monday when they were able to get parts and repair the trailer.




So, there we were in Idaho Falls for the week end and had the time to do the tourist thing. Here is the falls that gives Idaho Falls its name. Can't believe we never went there last summer as it was impressive!


Found a great church to visit on Sunday morning and met Marva, an 80 year old who had traveled the country in an RV for many years. She & her husband had settled in Idaho Falls near their daughter. A divine appointment! Praise God!
If you have the book "God Calling", please read May 1. "Delay is not Denial ...it is the opportunity for God to work out our problems & accomplish our desires in the most wonderful way possible for us." WOW!



Also went to the Museum of Idaho Falls and saw this "Bodies Exhibition". Very interesting!

Left Idaho Falls on Tuesday May 3 for Missoula, Montana!

Four new springs and the money to pay for them! We have an awesome God!
