Tuesday found us just chilling out at Mike and Miriam’s house. I did have to go have a new tire put on the front of the trike because it was wearing badly. Tuesday evening, Mike and Miriam took us to a restaurant in downtown Boise called “Donnie Macks Trailer Park Cuisine. It was in an old gas station and the decor was old junk. Below are some pictures.
Note the waiting area. Old couches and end tables.
I thought the old car with table inside was the best but there was already someone using it. Note that the hand rail going in is out of old exhaust pipes. Right next to the stairs going up to the car is a square box. There is a whole car that has been crushed inside the box. The make use of old shower curtains to hide their supplies.
Here we are waiting for our name to be called.
Wednesday morning saw us leaving Mike and Miriam’s and starting our trek home. I had been thinking about skipping Colorado and going home via route I-80. That would have been the fastest way, but decided at the last minute to go via Colorado. Mike and Miriam had showed us a way to cut some time off of our journey and they said the road was beautiful. It was in a canyon most of the way. We will have to admit that it was beautiful, but we were not able to take any pictures because it rained the whole way through the canyon. We looked like 2 bananas riding on a trike but we stayed dry. The sign below tells the story of how straight the canyon was.
When we finally came out of the canyon, the sky started to clear and the road became desolate and blah. Judy did capture a picture of a rainbow in the distance.
However, we came over a rise and were in the middle of what looked like a crater.
And one last shot of the rock formations that we saw today.
