| driving the original right of way for the transcontinental above the wetlands of the great salt lake |
Raining in Twin Falls, ID. Ensconced in the Blue Lake Inn for the time being having scooted out of Salt Lake after oats and yoghurt at Chris'. Steve set us on a course to visit City of the Rocks, the site of the driving of the golden spike in the finale of the building of the transcontinental rails and the missile factory of Morton Thiokol; we hiked among the rocks and rock climbers and I got a new hat. Dirt road out of the rocks to several small towns selling rocks and then inevitably the interstate to Twin Falls and a light supper at the Kim Crawford wine discovery restaurant called something like Elevation 487. Very mediocre butternut squash ravioli and no Kim Crawford. Great view down into the Snake River Canyon however. Also hot hot tub at Blue Lake.
