Oregon and into Idaho

It is Monday and we are in Mountain Home Idaho. Thanks for reading our blogs.
The last ouple of days have been short rides for the bikers and me. I just get the truck warmed up and we are in the next town. This weekend we crossed into Idaho and stayed in Boise Sat and Sun night. On Sat after dropping off the trailer at the school I brought the gear truck to a repair shop to get a minor air leak fixed. When I was driving to the school with the truck and trailer I had to swing wide to make a tight right corner and some silly person passed me on the right side as I was making the turn. He just about took out the front of the truck. Don't people see that I have my signal on.
It was a real treat not having to break down and set up the tent for one day. Boise is a nice city and we had our worship service was right in the City Park along the Boise River. A lot people were on tube and rafts floating down the river. Rose and I and a SAG driver named Cory explored Boise. WE went to the train depot which had a good few of the city from its bell tower. We walked downtown and saw the Capital building.We walked back to the school where we are camping which was a 4 mile walk along the Biose river
We are talking to a lot of people about the tour as we are all wearing our yellow sea to sea shirts and they are curious about what we are doing. We are getting a good response.
Rose got to ride part of the route today because one of the lady bikers was tired and needed a break. Rose really enjoyed doing that. Rose is in the food line up getting our food while I am typing this blog.Here she is so I am going to post this blog now.
Thanks for keeping an eye on our boys
Blessings
Steve & Rose
