Idaho City

Finally we got the pics loaded!

A few weeks ago Tren, Belle, Rooster and I went to Idaho City to do some Kokanee Salmon fishing. They were doing their run Grimes Creek to spawn. We got up to camp just in time to set up, round up fire wood, and get dinner cooking. For dinner we had a roast with potatoes, carrots and onions and we burried it in the fire. Keith, Carmen, Vince and Randi drove up and made it in time to taste some of the dinner. It seemed to be a hit.

Vince, unable to sit still as usual, climbed some trees and hoisted the chainsaw up and cut some nice branches down to burn. The pic below is him in a tree, with Keith spot-lighting him.



Vince, Randi, Keith and Carmen left later and we headed to bed.

In the morning we went out to fish. I regret to inform you that being a "new blogger" we didn't take the camera with us. I know! I wish I would have. The kokanee were so pink/gold/orange that they practically glowed in the water. Tren found a great spot where they were swimming upstream and we just stopped there and he fished. He caught 5 fish all together and we had to head home. Rooster had eaten too much dead stuff and rotten things that by the time we were out fishing she was pooped and sick to her stomach...



Yes,... Rooster is laying on carpet. It was already up there and laid out by the fire pit. It was kind of nice because it helped keep the dust down. The dirt there was so powdery and full of ash. Belle got quite dirty and quick! Enjoy the pics of dirty Belle!
