Originally, this was a weekend trip to visit with my friend, Lisa, who recently moved to Moscow, Idaho. It later turned into a longer trip to visit with family in Montana. It also gave me a chance to introduce my boyfriend, "Ax".
Friday, Ax and I drove from Boise to Grangeville, Idaho after work (about 250 miles). We were packed up and on our way earlier than expected. With potty breaks and stretching we made it in about 4 hours.
I was a bit apprehensive about the motel I chose on-line. The choices I had were Monty's Motel
or the Elkhorn Lodge. It turns out there was a Super 8 and a few others, but the Elkhorn was clean and all we really needed. It smelled like my Grandma's house. (A comfortable old cabin full of Avon products.) Anticipating a late arrival to Grangeville, the motel did everything over the phone and gave us our room number. The paperwork was waiting in our room for a signature. We never had to see a member of the staff. It was very convenient!
Other than Ax being miffed that someone or something chose his tire as a place to relieve himself; it was a pleasant stay in Grangeville. Since we didn't have to meet Lisa till nearly lunch time on Saturday, we didn't do any hurrying to get ready for the next leg of our trip.
