A Trip to Minnesota Day One

   We got an early start on Monday.  Not as early as I would have liked, but 7:30 was pretty good.  The Prius was really loaded!  There were a few extra boxes aboard, one containing my Teac reel-to-reel tape deck and two computer paper boxes full of reel-to-reel tapes some of which I have recorded and some were purchased from Special Services in Viet Nam in 69-70.  Some old stuff.
   We were taking it to Minnesota to give to R brother.  He has a recording studio and is going to see if the deck or any of the tapes are in good shape.  I might get some recorded CDs out of the deal.  We will see.
   An hour lost as we crossed into Malheur County.  An hour lunch in Jerome, Id at the Burnt Lemon where burnt lemons are used to make a tasty lemonade.
   We arrived at the Days Inn in Evanston, Wy. at about 8:00 pm       600 miles and the foam rubber pad helped keep my butt from falling asleep.  Early to bed for the next day which turned out to be longer than we expected.
