Our own private Idaho

This was our last day in the car! We spent the night in Boise, ID, before the final push to Pullman with Zeke the kitty in tow with us. He was a good traveler for the last leg of our journey. "He did not meow that much," says Maggie.

The drive north into the panhandle of Idaho was very scenic, through tall pine forests and lots of inclines and ravines. We also snaked along the Snake and Salmon rivers, and the blue Jetta just barely chug-chug-chugged its way over some quite steep mountains? hills!

Then before long, we saw the rolling wheat (and lentil) fields known as the Palouse:

 and welcome to the Palouse!

We rolled into town mid-afternoon, greeted by the clear blue skies and cool breezes. The simply amazing weather hasn't let up yet.

The next few days consisted of us sleeping on air mattresses in our new house and anxiously awaiting the arrival of the moving truck.
