Ontario, OR to Boise, ID

It got quite cool overnight….around 50 degrees. We did not take a very warm sleeping bag along considering it is summer, so we added some fleece pullovers for the night. I left camp about 7:40 and arrived at the Boise site at around 2:00. It was a 66 mile ride today and it was gently uphill most of the way. We crossed into Idaho, our 3rd state, shortly after leaving Ontario.

It reached the low 90s today. We have not seen a cloud in the sky for the past several days. We had a lot of turns on the route today and had to follow the directions carefully. Boise is the largest city we have come to since leaving Seattle. The last ten miles or so were through the Boise urban area on fairly busy traffic. Julie was parked with the SAG truck at the 50 mile mark today on the edge of Boise. There were 10 acre lots for sale next to her that had a price tag of $299,000. We biked past the Boise State University stadium and are camped on the far end of the city at a high school. There is a strip mall and other stores across the street. We are here for 2 nights, with tomorrow off from biking.

There is a local RCA church that we will be worshiping with tomorrow morning at a park.

The internet satellite dish is still not working, so that is why my updates are posting late. I’ll see if I can find an internet café or such.

Love to all, P & J.
