Today we did most of the Historical Walking Tour which is in the Central Part of Guam. It was very hot so may finish up at a later date. We did most of it starting with Santos Memorial Park/Latte Stone Park. Eight giant carved limestone formations, known as latte by Chamorros, were moved here. Chamorros built their houses on these stone pillars. The pillars are two-piece construction; the supporting column was topped with a capstone. The supporting column was made from coral limestone and The capstone was made from natural hemispheric-shaped coral heads laboriously collected from the reefs. The Japanese excavated caves are also located on the site, but visitors are warned to stay out of these World War II sites. Next up was the Dulce Nombre de Maria Cathedral-Basilica dating to the 17th century. Built ... read more

July 22, 2010 Last night we stayed in Wells, Nevada. We left at around 8:00 a.m. for Idaho and Wyoming. We had to do a little RV cleaning before we left. Nevada made everything gritty and dusty. Jackpot, Nevada is the last town before entering Idaho. There is nothing I could see in Jackpot except motels, hotels, RV Parks, and casinos. Entered Idaho at 9:15 am. Went through Twin Falls, Idaho, took pictures of the Snake River Gorge and, at last, some green farm fields and TREES. Went through Pocatello to Idaho Falls and into Ashton where we camped for the night. Beautiful campground, view of the Tetons. See you in Yellowstone. The RV Resort we stayed at was in a large grove of trees in the middle of a golf course in the middle of ... read more
