June 8, 2015. Today marks the 47th anniversary of the marriage between Malachi and Annie Farkley. It also marks the ?th birthday of Annie. She is still the radiant bride I pledged myself to, lo, those many years ago. I am a lucky man. And, I am the best birthday present she ever received.
Mountain Home, Idaho, to Rock Springs, Wyoming, is about 440 miles and that is the distance we covered today. We have gone from manicured campsites there to gravel sites here. There is a pool here, heated to 89 degrees. We didn't get in, however. It simply didn't look that inviting.
Did you know there is a Sublett, Idaho? I knew there was a Sublette, Kansas and a Sublette County in Wyoming. I didn't know about the town in Idaho. Well, actually, it is a fuel stop, but it does have its own zip code. We didn't get off the interstate to inspect the community. The town isn't listed in the Atlas so I have no idea what the population is. It evidently isn't large enough to be listed in the Atlas. Proofreader Annie points out that there is no "e" at the end of Sublett, so maybe it has no connection to the Sublette family. I am curious, though.
We are about 900 miles from home. My present thought is to spread that distance over the next two days. That will have us home Wednesday evening. We will likely spend tomorrow night in Nebraska somewhere.
We will see you soon.
