We got a good start today, in spite of staying up until almost 2 am last night.  Got up at 7:30.  Everything went pretty much downhill from there.   Sarah was feeling nauseous and unwilling to get too far from a bathroom.  She decided to lay down for a while so I walked 6 blocks (one way) to find a bottle of water.  [There are a lot of vacant buildings in that little town.]  Packing up to leave happened in fits and starts and took about 10 trips to the car.

We were finally ready to leave around 11:00 when Sarah got a phone call from the title company.  They wanted to e-mail some documents so we could print them, Sarah could sign them and we could fax them back.  Is that enough technology for one transaction?  Thanks to the wonderful young woman at the front desk of the EconoLodge in CleElum, it was all done on her computer, printer and fax machine. 

Near noon now, we finally got back on the road.  I drove to mid-Idaho and Sarah got us to Missoula.  There were several areas of construction, but only two serious slowdowns.  Spokane during rush hour was interesting.  Othere than that, it was a beautiful day and there was some awesome fall scenery.  We're in a teeny room at a LaQuinta, but the beds are great and that's about all that matters right now.

  1. If ever they want to change the way that capital punishment is carried out, I think they should forget about lethal injection and have the condemned prisoner move Sarah from one state to another...or do you think THAT is cruel and inhumane punishment??
