After driving 6 hours on Friday evening to Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, we set our tent up in the dark.

We awoke to a scenic drive around Coeur d'Alene Lake, which is much bigger than this picture implies.


Then we went to Silverwood amusement park, where we rode the Scrambler...



The Tilt O'Whirl....



And I don't remember what this one was called, but it sure looks like Limei was having a good time!



Nice photography light at the end of the day.



Then we set our tent up in the dark, again, and got ready to cook the best campfire meal possible.



We had steaks, corn on the cob...



...and yes, those are baked potatoes on the left, we throw them right in the fire.  Yummy!!!



We woke to a beautiful sunny morning.


Farragut State Park has a lovely lake, we had to postpone a swim for the next time though....




...because we had just found out that there were 3 frisbee golf courses in the park!





Nothing like tossing some disc in the trees with the mountains in the background.



Yep, nothing quite like it.  What a great weekend, who'd have known Idaho was such a cool place?

Spinach from early summer. That stuff grows like a weed!











The first tomato harvest.




Yummy cherry tomatoes and green beans from today.



Tall tall tomato plants.


Bearing some good fruit.  Or vegetable.  They taste good, that's all I know.


I don't know how we did it, but we grew some good stuff this year!
