Time flies! August is drawing to a close and September arrives tomorrow. We have moved from Palisades Dam to Idaho Falls. We will be at the Snake River RV Park and Campground until September 28th. A highlight of our last week was a trip to Dubois, Wyoming for a work assignment. Rosie and the pooches rode along and we had a great lunch at the Cowboy Café in downtown Dubois. Here are some Dubois pictures:

It is great to be back in Idaho Falls. We got to shop at our favorite Wal-Mart, picked up a months worth of mail, and attended a gathering of one of our favorite social groups on Thursday night. I got my truck into my regular and trusted repair shop to diagnose my power steering fluid leak. Turns out the power steering fluid also works in the power brake turbo-boost system. This will require replacing a pricey part in the braking system, but the garage will look for a reliable used part on Tuesday to save a $100 or so. In the meantime, I will keep adding power steering fluid.
Time for the monthly full expense report:
Camping – $456 ($14.70 per night)
Diesel Fuel when pulling – $308.50
Truck Repairs/Service – $176.78
Generator Gas/Propane - $0
Satellite TV/Radio – $103
Total for August $1,044.28
Thanks for stopping by.

What a neat looking town. But no break downs allowed! Ever. None. (I hope my rig can hear this too)
Beautiful Pics. Should add in a total of what it costs to eat whether at the rig or eating out. Happy Hours not necessary.Be Safe and Enjoy!
It's about time.
Hi Rick and Kathy,
I don't include food and dining expense because I think those costs represent different food quality preferences for each individual. I will say that we seldom eat out and that our food costs have risen about 10% as a monthly average since we often have to shop in small town markets where prices are higher than the Wal-Mart Supercenters we prefer.
I am sure that this one is showing creativity at its best. They are simply looking great and awesome.
