Dear Girls and All,
We came from Twin Falls to Idaho Falls yesterday – about 186 miles. Pass through Burley, American Falls, and Pocatello. It was not so hot yesterday, though the country was more or less desert. We are following the Snake mostly. Last night our camp was good – in an auto park, but we had our own fire. Everybody well. Bernice’s cough almost gone. Two punctures to Irl’s tire. Roads are having a lot done to them and are hard on tires. We are still 124 miles from park. Having a good time. Love, Momma
P.S. Am feeling fine.
[You've seen this photo before, but I wanted to share what Ina had written on the back of a duplicate: "Our first camp. Taken in the morning of July 28, '26, at 'Gouge Eye' near Riggins on the Salmon where the Little Salmon runs into it. Note the towels on Irl's car and wash pans on running board. Also the small square black thing against the windshield just under a corner of the top. This was a little old square mirror which Ethel loaned us. Note my grub box seat and the box with the toaster leaning against it is our lunch box and the one by it also rode on the running board and held our extra maps and parcels."]
