Idahoedown

My first weekend in Idaho was spent road tripping with some new friends to somebody's cabin in the back woods who I didn't know.

I'm well aware that this sounds like the makings of a horror movie.

The short of it:

Full on, actual log cabin, with 70's style pistachio green shag carpeting in the midst of the Sawtooth Mountains.

Two days of a hillbilly themed family party, complete with a mini-high school reunion of kids from Twin Falls.

Friday Nite:  A stop in Stanley, ID at the Kasino Club to watch Jeremiah James Gang play some footstompin' country/bluegrass.

Saturday Day and Nite: Live band at the cabin, face painting, laying beach-side and swimming in freezing waters at Redfish Lake with a dreamlike view of evergreens and the peaks of some lonely Sawtooths, Mexican food, a keg of beer, PBR in the cooler, a raging bonfire, s'mores, 6 lbs of bacon and a pancake breakfast in the morning.

Not a bad first weekend, if I do say so myself.

Now that I've managed to return to my homestead without any missing limbs and with the breath of life still in me, I feel compelled to post photos from the weekend excursion.

Thanks to my amigos Ian and Katie for inviting me out.  And to Melissa for letting us take her car.

And now, a brief look at some photos...
