We left our nice RV spot on Blackwell Island and headed out of Coeur d’ Alene by 9:30. The lake was beautiful
We had a 389 miles drive to our destination in Bozeman, Montana.
It was another perfectly clear, blue-skied day. The temps are cooler here than closer to the west coast. The Aspen were in their full golden color and made a nice contrast to the dark evergreens.
We had a beautiful drive through the mountains in Idaho and Montana. Rivers and rocks and trees filled our windshield with beauty.
We loved the speed limit, though we didn’t drive that fast.
For lunch, we stopped at a Rest Area and I quickly put a salad together.
Jim and start our day with prayer and a scripture reading. As we sipped our second cup of coffee, we read in the Old Testament—Deuteronomy chapter six. Verse 12 caught my attention. It says,
“When you eat and are satisfied, be careful that you do not forget the LORD, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery.”
I don’t ever want to forget the provisions and care the LORD has given to me. He took care of me in my widowed state. He’s taking care of me in my happily married state. And He’ll be with me when He takes me home to him. And in the meantime, I’ll enjoy traveling with Jim—as we explore our beautiful country!
We had a wonderful evening with our friends, Dean and Mary, catching up, and listening to their boys, Kyle and Bryce, talk about school and Montana and cold winters and football.
We’re tired so will hit the sack early tonight. Tomorrow’s a long day. 500 miles!
Tomorrow, South Dakota, land of the Badlands, Custer's Last Stand and more. Catcha later…..
