We might have been in Oregon tonight. We had to decide between this town and Ontario but this had the better hotel. In less than two weeks we will be in one little apartment in Eugene and I’ll be glad, too. We were going to try for Baker, Oregon today so Pop wanted to be started at seven. It was eight before we were actually on the road after breakfast and gas. We expected from the map to have pavement all the way to Seattle but we had several patches of gravel, one 50 miles long. All morning we traveled thru beautiful irrigated land but this afternoon it was all desert except for a few irrigated valleys. In one of the little towns Pop picked up some fruit and some hot dogs and hamburger sandwiches and we had our lunch alongside the road just out of Boise. We had some more sandwiches and we finished up the fruit for supper the same way. In Boise I half expected to see Jack’s and Alice’s Buick because that’s where Jack’s Grandmother lives and they undoubtedly visited her on the two month honeymoon.
