Idaho - The Gem State | Uphill Zen

Idaho has awesome mountains, beautiful scenery and remarkably nice people.

Unfortunately, I’ll always remember it as the place where Zennie’s engine blew up… 🙁

Apparently I forgot one thing, now rectified... New alternator - check! 👍 I finally made it out of Idaho, an expensive state for me! 🚐💰 So my last photo from there... Hiking at Silver Creek Preserve. Two guys there 1/2 hour before me ran right into a big bull moose! They turned back, and I was watching carefully going around every corner. But no moose for me! Still a beautiful place! 😀 #idaho

As you approach the entrance to Mammoth Cave, there are dozens of these quirky faces lined up to greet you! 😜😀👍

I didn't realize just how big swans are! This guy was about up to my hip. Very stately!
Sun Valley is pretty quiet right now, with just a light dusting of snow on some of the trails.❄️ It's easy to picture this place at the height of ski season though! 🏂⛷ But how are these flowers still blooming? It was 2C in my camper this morning - it's cold out there! 🌺⛄️😉 #winteriscoming #idaho

My new home away from home, in Carey, #Idaho. My camper Zennie is very sick! 🚐😰 So we're parked here for awhile, while they put a new engine in it.⚙🔧😱💰💰 I just had my 3K oil change the day before, up in Idaho Falls. They said there were a few problems, but said nothing major & sent me on my way. I was worried, but continued... Very next day, big problems! 😖😭 So now I've got an extra week to spend in southern #Idaho. Good news is there's a mechanic in town who seems to know his stuff & be a nice guy. He loaned me his van for the week so I can go sightseeing 🚙🏔, drew me a map of places to go 🗺, and invited me over to eat with his family. 👱🏻👩🏼👧🏼👦🏼👶🏼🍝👍 #badday #silverlining
