More Idaho

Venturing to Northern Idaho this summer wasn't our only adventures to the Gem state. We also made a couple of trips a South-easterly direction to crash at my parent's place.  These trips home are never a disappointment.  In fact, this summer Kitty even managed to score a new pet....much to Booney's chagrin.

We slipped away to Idaho for Memorial Day.  It was a lovely trip.

We did things like visit the zoo.  It was a great time.  They had lemurs - Kitty's favorite!

And we visited the cemetery.  There were no lemurs there, but we did get to remember our loved ones so that's pretty great too.

We had a campfire around my sissy's new fire pit.  I helped haul some of the rocks to help finish the job.  In fact, I'm quite certain she never would have finished without me.  She certainly wouldn't have had anyone to eat her chicken pot pie leftovers if I hadn't been there.  You're welcome.

We also had a tea party. 

And made a Lego man named Jeffery.

And then we had to rush home so Kitty could finish her last day of 1st grade.

It wasn't very exciting.

BUT - then we rushed back to Idaho to celebrate the 4th of July.  Now that was a good time. Even with the Covid, we were able to enjoy the holiday.  

We went to a parade - they didn't throw candy so we barely survived the heat.  

We also trekked to the Indian reservation and loaded up on fireworks.  It's possible we spent hundreds of dollars.  Hey, in these uncertain times, ya gotta do what ya gotta do.  We had a delicious dinner of smoked pork and watched our fireworks and the city's fireworks from my sissy's driveway.  It was divine.

On another day we watched my nephew play baseball.  Kitty got to try her hand at batting afterwards.  She did pretty well for a feline.

And we had plenty of cousin time.  It really is the best kind of time.

And don't forget our pet acquisition. I shall withhold my true feelings about this since it was a dream come true for Kitty.  Her name is Jeffery.  Jeffery the girl cat.

Jeffery was the Co-captain on the drive home.

When we arrived home, there was a note waiting for me from Kitty.  She makes me smile.

And that's that.  Going to Idaho is not a bad way to spend the summer months.  

My Google review is a solid 5 stars.
