Blue Skies Again On Our Third Day Of Travel

What a great morning it was at Yuba Lake. The air was cold and clear and a golden sun was already shining right into our side window. The first pickup trucks arrived with their boats for a morning of fishing. THAT, however, would probably be a rather cold adventure which I would not have liked to be part of.   On our way out we stopped at the dumping station to make sure we wouldn’t be carrying all that water around. I have to make a correction about yesterday’s post. The snowy mountain we thought was named Tintic turned out to be almost 13,000ft high Mt.Nebo. Just a little error we found out about.

A bonus was the view of the majestic snow-covered mountains east of the cities. Gas prices were surprisingly low at around $3,25/gal. which is actually less than in Nevada and Arizona. As we rolled into Idaho, traffic volume thinned out a lot, and it appeared clear that w Utah State Capitol in Salt Lake City Today we were also very lucky with the wind as it was either no wind at all or a slight tail wind. That way we made a record 11.3mpg today.
