It is funny, because<br />we were discussing going up and spending a couple of days mini vacation (after recovering from the drive to Topeka and back last month-3400 miles). It sits of big Lake Pend Oreille and is sort of <br />a strange combination tourist/red neck town. Think latte & gunfire? <br />One of the draws is a huge dock full of small buildings that sticks<br />out into the lake which feature arts, crafts, foods and a lot of tourists. Among railroad aficionados, the 'bottleneck' of trains<br />heading for and coming from the north mountain crossing is a big draw. You would probably like the nearby guest ranch, which caters to Michigan <a href="http://westernpleasureranch.com/" rel="nofollow">cowgirls</a> !<br />BB-Idahohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01388509941702241290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4130421352415377273.post-58066506950405310172015-08-15T08:49:30.406-07:002015-08-15T08:49:30.406-07:00BB, are you anywhere near Sandpoint, ID?

The creativity that went into some of the costuming was wonderful. A fun day for all and, fortunately, it was cool enough that the dogs could enjoy it too.Karen Casebeerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14002150769292672779noreply@blogger.com
