No squawks on Sunday

Sunday dawned with the unasked question in the air, "Would the squawk return?" Sort of on edge, we began to drive up toward Salt Lake City along a route suggested by another person in the park where we had spent the night. His suggestions turned out to be excellent, and in no time we were driving along the western side of the Wasatch Mountains and passed through Provo and then Salt Lake City, where we spotted an Ikea store. Best of all, there was no squawking. Ikea has modern furniture with simple lines that is relatively inexpensive. We stopped there about 11:00 am and in a half hour the doors opened, if you wanted to visit their restaurant, which we did for a late breakfast. It was good and cheap. Breakfast over, we explored the store and found a great drop leaf table, very much the twin of the table that Gordon and Diana had purchased in Austin a few weeks back.

Back in the coach, with our table to be assembled in the back seat of the car, we went back on the road and headed for Idaho, where we stopped for the evening. We we got to the KOA and parked, I began the process of putting together the table we had purchased at Ikea. Chili for dinner, and we hit the sack. Happy travels.
