Boondocking Latah County Fairgrounds, Idaho
We really enjoy Idaho’s visitor friendliness but hadn’t realized that they even have low and no cost places to stay overnight in some towns and at some county fairgrounds. We started the week by going back into Moscow to do more shopping and to do our dumping at the fairgrounds* and realized they had a gravel lot where we could park for no cost.
We sure are destroying the “car trouble fund”! At Winco the starter solenoid froze, I don’t think it had 5000 miles on it. God provided an O’Rielly’s Auto Parts store within walking distance.
Luckily we loved their nice quiet fairground since the thunderstorms kept us hanging around for 4 more nights in Moscow.

Lazy Mary, is that in Italian, or Russian? i ask Russian because of the town yer in: Moscow. was the town (or area) originally settled by Russians?
so, Sonny got all the work done. did he also change out the starter?
see, now if you had a tiny economical car to tow, you could leave yer “home” parked and get about easier.
Lazy Mary is Italian, fun song, we are trying to get Dean Martin’s version. All that time in Moscow, and I don;t think I heard about the name.
Sonny finished up, but the starter solenoid that died is sandwiched between the battery and the headlight, once I take out the battery I can change it pretty easy, I think including takeing out the battery I am down to less than 45 mins to replace it. :O
We dont think the Minnow would be likeing trying to tow anything, she seems to struggle to get herself up some hills, and coming down, she gets real worried shes gonna get going too fast and not make the next curve :P
