Well we went ot Idaho Mar 4-12 to check out Shawn & Ben's new Condo and did a little work to help them get it ready for move in.
We drove the whole way there March 4th (13 hrs) and also the return trip back home on March 12th (14 hrs).
We left the house at 6:30 am got Breakfast Susage McMuffins & Coffee and were on our way. Gassed up again just east of Sparks, NV and picked up some ribs at the Flyin' Pig Bar-B-Q around lunch time. Gassed up in Elko, We turned North on 93 at Well and ecountered a little snow between Wells and Jackpot NV where were made a "potty" stop and crossed into ID. Then it was clear to Twin Falls, we stopped and got some gas and bought some stuff at Costco. We got some heavy fog between Jarome and Hyw 20. Coming home the forcast was for winter storm the whole way, but Norma wanted to get home so we left Ketchem around 6:30am and had clear sky's and road all the way to Reno. In Truckee they were having people put on chains and the speed limit was 30 mph. But since we were driving the Toyota 4X4 and had snow tires they waved us on with no chains. The 30 mph was all the way to Baxter, so that added the extra hour to the trip.
Their new place is in Sun Valley in the Elkhorn Village area. It has a detached garage and is a 2nd/3rd floor unit. Nice View of the Mountains to the south. It is close to Dollar Mountain Ski Area, which they like so they will have closer acces to it for Sage's skiing.
Norma took cake of Sage most of the time we were there during the day while Ben I were doing "tear out" at the new condo. I did manage to put some shelves into one of the closets for Shawn.
