Idaho and Onward


Leaving Baker City, Or. and heading south-east to Twin Falls was not very eventful. The weather was crisp and the plains were many. We traveled the 270 miles to the KOA park with the expectancy of visiting the unknown. The park was okay, enough room for the truck trailer and the flies. It seems there are a lot of cattle and cows around here. After arriving we toured the Perrine Bridge and the Snake River Canyon. It was windy and cold with all the Beauty the Earth could offer. We didn't do much the rest of the evening. Sat. we left our home early and headed to Twin Falls. After breakfast we went to Shoshone Falls. These falls are known as the Niagra Falls of the west. The falls are created by a damn, at a narrow spot in the canyon. They fall almost 200' and flow down under the spot where Evel Kneivel tried to jump the Snake River. It was cold and raining when we were there, I will say that the views and feelings we had were indescribable. With the water, rocks, rain, birds, you can know that there was some master plan in the creation. There is no way that all of that was a chance of evolution. Enough on my theories for now. Twin Falls was a nice experience and we had some fun. Our next lenghty stay will be in Reno, Nv. We hear tell that the rain and snow could hamper our travel to Nevada.
Will let you know what happens. Oh yeah, no pictures for a while, computer problems, should be remedied in a couple of weeks. Love to All,
Cris & Bob
