Leaving Hills



Well, we spent our last day in Hills hanging out at the cabin playing scrabble and enjoying some summer rain showers. In the afternoon we made a quick trip into New Denver for some dinner fixin’s and one last dip in the lake. I just cannot say enough about how incredible Slocan Lake is! You can tread water and see your feet! Granted it is a bit cold for my taste but by the end of the week it truly felt good.


We left Hills Monday morning to lots of hugs and tears. It really bites that those guys live soooo far away. Ronato hitched a ride with us down the valley and after we left him (boo hoo again, he’s a keeper!) we cruised across the border and into Washington. The border patrol lady was super snarky and she confiscated Aunt Bay’s beautiful garlic braid (they let us keep the garlic though) but we made it through and back into the good ol’ U. S. of A.


Spent the night last night in a little campground on the banks of a beautiful river in Cataldo, Idaho. We are headed to Montana today, hoping to do some white water rafting in Gardener, Montana near Yellowstone. Looking forward to getting further south, it was 53 degrees this am, brrrr.
