Running from the Storm(s)

May 17, 2019


With rain on the forecast we headed for a night at Walmart in Richfield UT to re-supply.

We booked 3 nights at Pleasant Valley Ranch in Mount Pleasant UT hoping to wait out the weather.  






It became clear the rain would be hanging around another 5 days in western Utah and northeast Nevada, where we'd hoped to go next. With a good weather window on Monday, we decided to cut our stay short.


On Sunday afternoon there was a hail storm with temperatures about 30 degrees below normal for all of western Utah.




As the sun set, we were hoping for a good travel day tomorrow.

Monday, travel day.


Monday dawned bright and clear with a lot more white stuff on the surounding mountains.


The drive north on hwy 89 was quite scenic.


Even I-15 through Salt Lake City had some nice scenery. 


The rain caught up with us on I-86 heading into Idaho.

After an overnight at a Wal-Mart in Jerome ID, we landed at Bulls Creek Park,  a nice little county park near Vale OR.  



We'll wait out the weather and the upcoming Memorial Day holiday here.
