Napping with Max

Gary Busey?  We think so!

Centennial Trail is a 900 mile trail through Idaho, from Murphy Hot Springs to Priest Falls


The "old" part of Coeur d'Alene


Giant Cucurbita Pepo's, or Pumpkins (pumpkins are a type of squash).  These guys are growing by the sewage treatment plant on the Columbia River in Coeur d'Alene, ID.   Hmmmmm.


We ate at a nice place called Bardenay's by the river one night. This restaurant is the nation's first restaurant distillery. We enjoyed dinner with a great couple we met at the resort (from Calgary).  A few ducks joined us as well!


A Bison (not a Buffalo)

This passes for art in Idaho.  Bold.
