Motorcycle Ride – Hayden Lake, Idaho
What a great day for a motorcycle ride, warm and sunny. It is that time of the year when the pines smell so wonderful. Nothing better than pine trees in May! A beautiful day. Link to Map in “Where We’ve Been”

It’s that time of year. Spring has sprung and Easter is almost here! Yes, we are having house guests soon so we need to get the boat in the water. Not only that but we needed to get it cleaned and prepped and my husband has to make sure the

Don’t you ever just want to stop for the night but can’t find a place to park a big rig? After driving all day in the pouring rain and wind we were ready to stop. Temperatures were dropping and the rain was soon to become sleet and ice. Welcome to
