Day 7, Thursday, Feb 1st


Another 8 hour drive took us through 3 mountain passes including the Continental Divide and into Idaho. This was our first-ever time in Idaho and we stopped at popular hotspot Coeur d'Alene for a late afternoon lunch. The sun was bright over the large lake and the downton area very quaint. We plan to meet friends Tom and Linda from Bozeman here in the later spring for a longer visit.
We drove through Spokane, WA and stayed overnight aout 50 miles southwest of the city. A good night's sleep and we're on to the final leg of the trip- destination Portland, OR!

We visited Idaho this summer on our way to Wy. It's a lot more than potatoes. Also, Boise is a community that many seem to like: good arts, cycling, music, culture yada yada. I did a film for my job this past summer and used actors and a recording studio in Boise. Remember that scene in Jeremia Johnson, where Bob Redford meets up with the old pioneer who describes the Rockies. They really are impressive.
