We spent the last week of July up at our cottage in North Idaho on the Moyie River. This is the first time after going up almost half a dozen times that it actually felt like a vacation. After buying it last fall and our first visit at Thanksgiving 2024, it’s been about prepping it for short term rental through AirBnB which started in April of this year. Pat and Sue came to stay with us as well after visiting Cour D'Alene, and then visiting Glacier National Park. Hunter and Noah could not come this time as they were both working. Pat and Sue joined us and we had fun showing them all around North Idaho.
Good amount of time hanging at our place, cooking, river time etc.
Hiked part way up Queens mountain and picked huckleberries.
Cooled off in the local "Sinclair lake" down the road (really a large pond)
Visited some local water falls (copper falls, ... water a little low at this point in the summer so less dramatic)
The local ski mountain and swimming in Sandpoint.
It’s harvest time in the Kootenai river valley!
