Mothers Day on the Snake River


Mothers Day- the only day of the year, besides my birthday were I get to say what I want to do and everyone has to do it with a minimal of grumbling. I had heard about this quirky roadside attraction/historical site/nature walk/museum ever since I had moved to Idaho and then was reminded about it at a recent docent meeting. Katherine will be moving back to Texas soon and I thought it would be a lovely way to spend the day, as she is into quirky art stuff too. Bill came along and enjoyed the trip as well. We had a nice brunch at the Blue Canoe. Free champagne and flowers for the moms too.

Then it was down the road to Walters Ferry:






lWhen we dropped Katherine off at her apt. she surprised me with a dozen roses. The only thing that could have made the day better was if my other daughter and my mom could have joined us. When mom does come to visit us, we will have to make another trip out there.
