We finally made it somewhere



After a map fiasco, a road so steep it makes power mountain road look like a preschool, and a few tears, we have arrived in the sort of place we were looking for.

It did not come to us easily. I bought a map, it was not the "right" map (going rouge as my husband said) so, the directions to here were a bit unclear. I don't have one of those god phones. So, the unnamed right he took, was not the right right. And then we hit a hill. A very long, very steep, very curvy, hill. And while on said hill, he said "you had better hope this is the right way, because we will die coming down"

Awesome

It was not the right way. We dead ended at a ski resort. After a volunteer walking down, a crinkled map, and a few more tears. K, with his amazing driving skills, got us down that road. Then, whilst going up the correct road, the overdrive light started flashing.

Shit.

Another stop, more yelling, more tears, and a call to the mechanic, we figured it out.

And found this….


Better yet, it was illegal

Then, whist driving up the correct road, and through a town call Smith's Ferry (I want to live there) We found a spot where we will live, for a couple days anyway.


Pretty, no?
