On July 2nd, 2016, after dropping off a final load of crap into our good friend's basement, we drove to Boise, ID to stay with Dani's grandma - affectionately known as Gramick Monique Fantastic. We departed on our nation's 240th birthday and traveled to Rock Springs, WY where we camped along Wild Horse Scenic Route overlooking the city.
After watching Andy's family's video of the New York fireworks, we watched the Rock Springs fireworks from a distance. Let's just say they were less impressive.
We woke up the next morning, excited to drive the final stretch to Colorado where we were to be married 4 days later. However, Bernard had other plans. He planned to spend the day getting towed off the bluff and into Green River, WY only to have a mechanic fumble about for 4 hours...of course we obliged. After about 9 hours, one rental car company without any cars, and only 30 minutes before the mechanic closed, Bernard decided to start. The only explanation given was, "maybe it flooded when you tried to start the engine, everything seems to be okay now." We were not in a position to question Bernie's antics, we were back on the road. We arrived at Dani's mom's house at 11:30 pm less $500. Crisis averted.
