For our first stop on our road trip we headed to Mountain Home, ID. We woke the kids up at 4:30 and left A-town at 5 am. (And the kids thought that getting up for school was early). We woke up this early to beat the traffic into Seattle and we did. We also got another travel partner for the drive into Seattle and into the mountains, the rain. The traffic over the pass was sparse which made for an easy drive.
We stopped for breakfast in Yakima and headed down to Richland. We crossed over the bridge into Oregon just before ten and were happy to be slightly ahead of schedule. Which was especially good for me, because in the few hours since we had left home I had come up with a list of things that we needed to get from Target that had sadly been left behind.
Most of the trip was spent playing with the new gps and admiring the gas milage that we were now getting with our DP Tuner. The DP Tuner was installed a week before we left and so far we are seeing an increase of 7 miles per gallon on the highway. Which means that we increased our gas milage by almost forty percent.
Once we got to Mountain Home we stayed at the KOA where we got our very own TeePee for the evening. The kids thought that was very cool.
Very cool teepee!
