Day 98, Featherville, Idaho

We went to Camping World and got my TV antenna.  It is the newer model that is suppose to be better for digital TV, we’ll see.  We got loaded up and drove the RV’s to the downtown area of Boise to look at the football stadium.  It has blue artificial turf and is quite impressive.  I forgot my camera so no pictures.  I took some with my phone but I don’t know how to transfer them to my computer.  You can teach an old dog some new tricks but not all new tricks.

We went about 15 miles south of Boise and I filled up with Diesel again.  It was $3.099per gallon and I put in 63.31 gallons.  I had driven 518 mile so I got 8.18 mpg and it cost me $196.20.  We also ate lunch at the restaurant there.

It wasn’t a very long drive to Featherville although we actually turned a little bit before we got to Featherville.  We parked in the yard at Doug’s mother’s house.  She isn’t living here at the moment, she is at her daughter’s house in Missouri.  It is pretty here, sort of a dry forest area with mountains all around.  It is very quiet and secluded here as her nearest neighbor is 1/2 mile away.

Doug and Pam stayed and had supper with us before they went back to Boise.  Gary cooked some hamburgers on his grill.  Mummm Good.

Tomorrow we will drive up a local mountain to a lake high in the mountains.
