My good friend, Daryl, drove over from Seattle for a long weekend with us in Osburn, Idaho. Unfortunately, it rained and was cold (40s and low 50s) all weekend, but we had a marvelous time anyway. We spent time catching up on each others lives and enjoyed touring a small town called Wallace with an extensive historic district, silver mining history and some great food!
This area has fantastic bicycle trails!! The Trail of Coeur d'Alenes follows along a river for 72 miles across Idaho and is spectacular surrounded by towering mountains. Mountain bikers can enjoy some of the more rugged trails like riding the gondola up to the top of a ski area and following the single track down or following the Trail of the Hiawatha which goes thru old train tunnels and across high trestles. (We only had road bikes which were clearly unsuitable!)
Another highlight...we were able to ensure Alan truly knows that I am the 'center of the universe' by taking a documentary photograph!
