OK, on with the blog update. When we left Texas it was over 100 degrees and Tyler's "Silver Bullet" over heated about 8 hours into the drive. We were literally in the middle of nowhere at a rest stop trying figure out the problem for several hours. There were three different truckers who stopped and helped us. At one point two trucker's and Tyler were looking down under the hood pouring their 2nd 64 oz. bottle of water into the radiator when I decided to look under the car to see where all the water was going. That's when I said, "Hey guys, all that water is just pouring onto the ground!" Three car savvy guys and none of them thought of it. Luckily I was there ;) They found the leak and Tyler fixed the problem. He had to blast his heat for a little while, but we made it!
So manly.
First time seeing 80 on a speed limit sign.
Cool rock on the drive home.
We saw one of Tyler's friends in San Antonio before we left. This little boy looves Tyler and when his Dad told him we were leaving this is the face he made. Notice the wet eyes. Poor boy.
He was happy when Tyler let him wear his hat, though.
I didn't get a lot of pictures of us camping. We spent most of the time in the tent playing card games instead of going off the rope swing into the lake :( We ended up taking off a day early and went to Green Canyon Hot Springs instead.

We've spent many a drive blasting the heater in the summer because of stupid overheating cars. Glad your man was able to fix the problem!
fun stuff! I'm very proud that u found the leak..impressive. I don't usually miss idaho's weather but some nice cold days sound SOOO good right now! Good luck surviving another winter in the frozen tundra my friend!
Don't you just love weird dreams?! haha! Oh, I'm in TX now!! Wish you guys were still here! Though, Dallas isn't that close to San Antonio. Hope Rexburg's snowfall holds off a little longer!
