The slab may be boring but the rest stops can yield some excitement. Upon seeing the cute little dog in the parked car next to us, we step closer only to be barked at, by not one rabid Pomeranian, but six! These little suckers act like they wanted to rip our testicles off. That is, until the little old lady comes back to the car and they all instantly shut up and act like cute little lap dogs. (Click on photo & see if you can spot all six) 

With this much slab to cover, you start noticing the strangest things as you visit little Idaho towns for gas and water. (Click on the photo to see what we're talking about)

And we probably entertain, or spook, the local residents as well. It is so hot that we end up standing in the lawn sprinklers at one gas station to cool off.
