The porch

Stopped in and had dinner at the local place in Idaho City

Idaho City

Barely deserves the moniker "city" but the folks are nice. A thunderstorm came through while we were stopped here so we stayed for supper. They even let me push my bike onto the porch until the storm was done.

McCall

Stayed in a "rustic" bungalow in scenic McCall ID. Pretty place but to expensive for me. Leave it to the rich kids.

They love me …

They named a town after me!

Pit stop

It was HOT today! One of my top 5 riding days ever. An amazing canyon ride from Baker to Richland then along the Snake River until we crossed out at Brownlee pass. The cooler climate after that was appreciated.

We are in McCall ID now which is a ski town in the winter and a lake town in the summer. The  bungalow next to us has 3 or 4 early twenties late teens "couples". I think we are in for an all might party. May try to talk Trish into a midnight swim ;)

Went to the local maket to get a Coors light couldnt find it. They did have have fancy wine, upscale microbrews and Papst of all things. Who would have thought that that swill Pabst would be trendy and hip? Go figure.
