We left Ammon, Idaho at about 9:00 with our destination being Baker City, OR. Virgil and I followed Pat and Mel, stopping whenever anyone needed a rest or break. It was an uneventful casual trip. It is nice to be unhurried in a trip - quite a new concept for me. I seem to always be fighting the clock when I go anywhere, so this was nice.
The campground at which we stayed in Baker City was very nice. It was designed around an old west style, had nice restrooms and shower facilities and was very clean and tidy. We ate at the Sumter Station restaurant. It was cute with a train going around and around the outside walls.
Virgil and I began listening to Free Men and Dreamers audio book. We had listened to it before, but it was 3 years ago, so of course, I had forgotten the story. It took a while to get it all sorted out, but is not very interesting. The romance part is a very common theme though - boy loves girl, girl loves boy. Girl sends boy a letter professing her love, relatives prevent the letter from being delivered, boy finds letter and goes to find girl, girl has given up on boy and is engaged to another. Same ol' story. But it is written around historical events during the War of 1812 .
