Back in the USA!

August 31 we crossed back into the USA and stayed in Shelby, Montana.   September 1 we bucked stiff winds all the way to Helena Montana where we stayed for two days.    We rode the tour train and visited the original Governor's Mansion.   Having been on a pretty busy schedule, it was nice to relax and catch up on groceries, wash, etc.   Our travel itinerary over the next week was as follows:

Thursday 9/3 we drove from Helena, MT to Idaho Falls, ID

Friday 9/4-9/5 we camped at Springville/PROVO, UT

Sunday 9/6-9/7 were spent at the St. George/Hurricane UT KOA, definitely in the mountains!   No TV, no wifi.  While we were there, we explored the Silver Reef mine museum outside of Leeds, UT.   It had been a busy mining town (silver) in the 1860-1900 time frame with a peak population of 1800 people.   The only original building still standing is the original Wells Fargo office which has been in use almost continually since being built.   We had a tour of the museum and took pictures in the area. 

On Tuesday 9/8 we camped at the Kingman, AZ KOA.   

On Wednesday we pulled into the Far Horizons Tucson RV Resort.   Very nice!

Will expand on our time in Tucson in my next post.
