Rexburg

Having an extra day off, we decided it would be nice to visit Julie & Dan in Rexburg, along with a nice drive up and back. Our route took us through Logan, Bear Lake, Montpelier, Alpine, past Palisades Reservoir, and into Rexburg.

Our hotel room, AmericaInn, was a very nice room, one of the nicest we have enjoyed in a long time, complete with a fireplace and jacuzzi tub.


We enjoyed a dinner with them and another friend, Jane, at Texas Roadhouse in Idaho Falls. Excellent prime rib, ribs, and tater skins, though the wait for a table took over 30 minutes while everyone else was seated almost immediately.
We drove up to the new LDS temple (under construction), attempted to visit the BYU-Idaho Bookstore (closed) and the Teton Dam Museum (closed), so we took Julie & Dan home and left town.

Our trip home took us past the Teton Dam, up and over the Tetons, into Jackson (lunch at Bubbas--BBQ chicken and beef brisket--yummy!), then down home through Star Valley, Evanston, Heber City and home.
