We made it to Idaho; the state that should be as far west as we go this trip but recently we’ve been changing plans as quickly as we make them, resulting in some wonderful surprises. Because of the heat and forest fires we realized going north doesn’t necessarily mean cooler temps but higher elevation certainly helps. Henry’s Lake has the higher elevation we were seeking but could only accommodate us for four nights. We decided it was worth the change so headed to this beautiful park on a beautiful lake. We were excited to discover, when we arrived, that they had an amazing walk in site we could book for two weeks. But that wasn’t the only surprise. After posting our whereabouts, our dear friends, the Thompsons, from Tennessee, informed us they were at their Montana cabin just 24 miles away. We have loved catching up with them, revisiting the cabin that holds so many wonderful memories, from two decades ago, and doing a fabulous mountain bike ride at Big Sky with Mary Claire’s daughter, Laura Ann, and husband Jeff. We knew we would get to see family in Idaho, but what a blessing to get to spend time with old friends in this beautiful setting!
