My wife got sick in the middle of the night.......didn't get much sleep. She wasn't up to the trip, and on 4 hours sleep, I didn't think I wanted to do the 6+ hour round trip on my own, so I missed it. Maybe try for the Idaho Falls show in a few weeks and make a weekend out of it instead of a 1 day trip.
Unfortunately, we didn't make it back to Missoula in time. We tried, but traffic on 93 was horrible (and it didn't help that we left Pinnacle later than planned). Oh well, next year
Used to make the trip down easily under two hours. These days, no way. Speed limit reductions on several places. Seems like after they added all the three lane segments, it became slower. Then you always get behind someone who is a traffic moderator, doing 55 when they could be doing seventy. Or some dolt texting/blabbering their way along. I have come to loathe that trip.
