Day 4- Failed attempts to cross Idaho

The plan as you may remember was to drive to Yellowstone. Well, that didn't happen exactly, and it's a good thing cause I saw a lot more of what I came on this trip to find. More on that later.

It's cold in this barren wasteland

I wanted to see the Crater's of The Moon National Park before hedding into Yellowstone and the half way point along two lane highways was The Shoshone Ice Cave. most of this section of Idaho are "active" lava flows. Active as in there could still be an eruption from the volcanos that made them,...

Courage defined

The clock was ticking and I was still at least 4 hours away from yellowstone. After consulting with Justine via phone, I decided to camp instead at the Crater's of the Moon National Park. 3 "active" volcanoes (remember what I said active meant in the last post) and their lava flows is the main...

Day 3: I lied

After posting yesterday about how I had done Boise in half a day and how I would probably not be staying another night here as I had planned, I changed my mind. I'm a liar. I drove to my hosts Abby and Jill's house just outside of downtown and got a chance to hang out with them and another...

Day 1

152,674 read my odometer as I pulled out of the gas station near my house in Oakland. $4.05/gallon was the price. 11:42am was the time. I was on my way. There is something momentous about taking your first steps toward an unknown adventure. The theme from 2001 hanging in the air. Chauncy Gardner...

Reno or Re-yes

Driving through Reno during Labor Day was weird. Normally, I would be covered in Dust and driving home to Oakland after a week at Burning Man. Not this year. I watched all the cars heading the other direction their American Dreams dreamt and spent. I passed Hwy 447 and it's promise of tabula...
