We hooked up and drove to the Discount Tire store in Coeur D'Alene (the only one in Idaho) to have them look at my two defective trailer tires. It turns out they were having their grand opening and they had free hot dogs, chips, jalapeno sausage balls, cookies, soft drinks, smoothies and coffee drinks. They also were taking $100 off the price of a set of four tires. They replaced both trailer tires and I also replaced the Pathfinder's tires which were on their last legs. This took most of the day. Then we drove on to Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area, Spring Canyon Campground, a few miles from the Grand Coulee Dam. This dam on the Columbia River was built in the 193o's and is the biggest in the U.S. At 10PM we went to the dam visitors center for a laser light show projected onto water tumbling down from the dam spillway.
