| Most Current US fire and smoke map. |
By the time this gets posted we will be on our way back to Las Vegas. We have made several tweaks to our schedule which will get us there next week. We have made so many changes now that I hesitate to say where we will be and when because we are getting pretty good at changing our minds. As of right now we are going to make a 50 mile trip tomorrow to fuel up and position ourselves in a campground in Coeur d'Alene that will allow us to get an early morning start on Sunday. There is a great deal of construction on I-90 eastbound in the area of Logan Pass and going through there on a Sunday will allow us to avoid the construction delays. Probably still a lot of narrow single lane road but we must handle that either way. The early start is needed mostly because we will be traveling all the way to Dillon, Montana in hopes of getting out of the worst of the smoke. That is a longer day than we normally like (about 400 miles) but will be worth it if the air is clear there.
Here are a couple pictures from the Sandpoint area. Sandpoint has had the distinction of having the worst air quality in the nation in the last few days. Hate to leave Larry and Linda behind but it is time to move on. Tonight our last dinner of the summer together - Sushi. Maybe it will be smoked Sushi?

This about half way across "Long Bridge".
Normally those trees in the distance would be clearly visible. |
