More Friends Visit !

For a few days last week, we were doubly blessed to have 2 couples visiting us. It was great for all of us to have time together, as they are friends too. Our boss was gracious enough to give us a Saturday off, so we could spend the day together. We started our day at the Campfire Lodge for breakfast. It was a wonderful meal, with great company and all at the shore of the Madison River. In the afternoon we had a cook out at Tom and Nancy's rig, where we were glad to be joined by two more friends.

Some fly fishermen just downriver from the restaurant.

The SKP Boomer line-up: Tom & Nancy, Dave, Betty, Jeannie (soon to be a Boomer), Diane (Dave's better half), Claudia & Larry. As is common for Boomers, we had great eats and lots of laughs.

The following day we went for a ride with Tom and Nancy along the Mesa Falls Scenic Drive. We missed Dave and Diane :( but they had to head back to South Dakota.

A strange looking bug. Looks like a cross between a bee and a butterfly.

Upper Mesa Falls. We took the nice walk which got us up close to the falls.

The lookout for Lower Mesa Falls gives a more distant view.

Zooming in on Lower Mesa Falls. We recently saw a report of an extreme kayak ride over these falls. We'll let you decide if it's an extreme sport or stupidity.

Most of the flowers are gone, but the leaves are turning beautiful colors.
