I get a very early start on day 2 of my trip.

After just one fuel stop (in Baker City, OR), I arrived at my overnight destination just before sunset: Three Islands State Park Campground. I chose the campground for its convenient location just a few miles off the Interstate and the fact that it had electrical hookup. That enabled me to run my portable electric heater all night, which is a heck of a lot quieter than my camper’s forced hot air propane heater. I was also able to turn on my electric blanket, ensuring that I’d be comfy and warm all night.

I slept like the dead, but because I went to sleep so early, I also woke up early. Early enough to hit the road by around 6 AM. I took a picture after starting the engine.

There were only two campers in the campground Tuesday night. I got the only pull-through site.

The weather report said there was freezing fog in the area, but it was perfectly clear and dry for the start of my drive.

Although Id made coffee before hitting the road, I stopped about an hour later in Twin Falls, ID for breakfast. It was still dark when I went into Starbucks — I admit that I love their breakfast sandwiches– but getting light as I left. I stopped at a local Walmart for milk and dog food and diesel exhaust fluid. The sun was just coming up as I refueled at the Walmart gas station — 20¢/gallon cheaper than everyone else in the area — and poured that exhaust fluid in.
