Going East to get "out west"

Idaho Wednesday, 7/3/2013
We have a new bed in the new van. Susan started with this idea for the bed in our "old" Ford van (not so old, but we don't have that one anymore. Her idea grew into making a frame for the bed rather than setting it up on top of our packing bins and buckets. She has done a great job and now we feel more comfortable about "camping".

Either side can be folded over for access to under the bed stuff

We are on the way to Montana. But first we will stop in Idaho, almost as a drive by, but we camp one night and bike a little on the Trail of the Coeur D'Alenes. We got ourselves settled into the campground in Cataldo, and took our bikes off the rack for a ride north toward Kellogg.

We came across a few kids jumping of the bridge for swim.

A really bad shot of the jump, but the best I got under the conditions!

Upon our return we needed dinner. The Snake Pit (our restaurant of choice from years past) has had some family crises, so is not open for dinner at this time, so we had dinner at the Mission Cafe.

We fortunately passed the entry rules

 

A different kind of bike rack

Fed and tired, we rode back to the campground to crawl into bed for the night. Ahhhhhh.
