Journey To Oregon

After leaving Idaho Falls, we continued our trek westward. This began our own Oregon Trail as we embarked on our journey to Oregon. This journey from one home base to another was a little different. Commonly we will drive from one locale to the next in one day. On occasion… Continue reading

Idaho Falls Ranch House
