The Dalles, Oregan to Pocatello, Idaho

Another big day of driving.  We saw lots of big stuff on the roads, trucks on trucks, wind turnbines on trucks, huge tires on trucks, three trailered trucks, and even double decker container trains.
The weather wasn't too hot, and it rained for a bit.  Another day to let the sunburn cool.
We stopped at the World Centre for Birds of Prey at Boise, Idaho.  It was really interesting.
They had about a dozen different types of birds in captivity, and they were fascinating to see.  The photo doesn't really do this bald eagle justice, his claws were huge!  I could really imagine him ripping a small mammal to pieces.
Tomorrow we are off to Tetson and  Yellowstone National Parks.  The forecast is for snow!!  Hopefully not.
