Day 25 September 22, 2025 Arco Idaho to home 200 miles
Not the best place we stayed. The bathroom light puts out about the same amount of light as a small taper candle. That lasts about 10 minutes. Then the light goes into strobe mode. The amount of light is more however. That soon runs out and it’s back to dim. The faucet for the shower is extremely difficult to turn on. Once it was on the hot water was barely luke warm.
The rain fell last night so the hood of the car is very wet. Not a good sign for starting the car. Today we were lucky. It started on the third try.
We stopped at a rest stop and Rob added more oil. The car does have a small leak.
The highway is being resurfaced for a few miles. We waited a short time for the pilot car. As we passed the flagger she blew bubbles.
We did see a small herd of antelope and some roadkill.
The remainder of the trip was uneventful thankfully. We managed to avoid gravel roads other than in the construction.
