One general theme of this (and past trips) has been the greater appreciation we’ve been having for the early settlers. We’ve been stopping at historical markers and just looking at the land. It’s absolutely unbelievable the places people went with Conestoga wagons. And the distances they covered. People actually took oxen and wagons through Craters of the Moon! It took us hours to drive some of the distances through mind-numbing flat/hill/sagebrush terrain and we were in an air conditioned car (with music) on a paved highway!

And all this time I thought that you had brought your Conestoga Wagon along with you and were using it for your daily transportation.
