Blackfoot, ID

We left Moab today and were planning to overnight in the Salt Lake City area. Most of the drive was rainy. We saw some Utah coal mines (I didn't know there were coal mines in Utah, notice the train tunnels) and had a bit of excitement when we encountered a recent rock slide. Some of the rock bits in the road were the size of cantaloupes with jagged edges. We couldn't avoid it so Mike just tried to steer around the larger pieces. Thankfully, no damage was done to the MH or the Jeep. There was a small car pulled off on the side of the road with a blowout.

We made it to our chosen WalMart around 5pm. Mike felt up to a little more driving so we stocked up on groceries and set out sites on a WalMart further up the road. It got dark while we were driving and we discovered that driving at night is the pits. We have crummy headlights and a 24,000 lb vehicle that doesn't stop very fast. Mix that with road signs warning about deer crossing the road. It made me nervous. Plus, you can't see the scenery.
