we meandered through Idaho and checked out cool stuff. did you know: the town of Idaho Falls is named for the falls, which is a man made dam constructed for hydro electric - apparently they were just rapids before that and a 20ft high cement barrier created the falls - they are worth a look!
next stop was craters of the moon national monument & preserve - this place was ridiculously cool and awesome; 2 days is enough to check it all out. we stayed at the lava flow campground...yep, it's a 2000 year old lava flow (a baby in geology terms) and we camped there!

| there's tiberius, to the left of the green tent, IN THE MIDDLE OF A LAVA FIELD! |
here is a quick slide show with the rest of the pics from this ridiculously wonderful place, make it a point to get there and check it out!
we made our way up to Ketchum & Sun Valley Idaho, did a quick jeep drive through the Sawtooth National Recreation Area and were busily planning our trek to WA....and it all comes to a screeching halt literally! tiberius blew his alternator = unable to charge our house & start batteries and then just to make it interesting, the emergency brake starts to lock-up while coming over the Sierras!
we made it to the bay area safe, tiberius has decided that he needs a respite...
but that's for another post...
