    Mabel is on the move again. Being the idiot I am, I plan this trip through eastern Oregon, Idaho, and Utah based on the average temps. Well the reason the average temps are near 65 this time of year is because a week ago they were in the 90's and now the 40's. Snowing where I be 40 miles east of Twin Falls.

    "Winter Driving Conditions - Use Caution" and frigging snowing about 500 ft past the sign. How did they know where to put that sign just amazes me.


    Anyway, as I hooked up everything this morning it was 38 with a what seemed like -15 wind chill.

    and settled in for what the weather report says is 5 days of freezing temps


    I've driven in heavy, deep snow in Utah in every month of the year, save July and August.
    Utah snow superiority guy. Every bored has one.

    Well I roll into Provo and it is 64 degrees and then all hell breaks loose. 50 mph winds. I know when to travel.



    Snowing all around us but not too bad really

    I 15 is a windy sum bitch.

    Try to pick up a sister wife for Mabel while you're there.

    was at Mike's grocery and did see a couple sister wives - mentioned it to the Mrs but she was unaware. I did not want to stare at the outfits too much - dressed alike head to toe. I think, but could not confirm, that the armpits were cutout.

    So from there went to the town of Frisco - Old Frisco Mining Town to be exact, absolute ghost town. Mined silver, few buildings crumbling away and these neat ovens



    area was blocked off by the mining company - fences up and warnings about fumes, cave ins, you know all the fun stuff.

    and another picture


    They could make some sweet kingsford briquettes up in there.
