View from the Ice House Pizza Parlor

I told Bill it was a "Bear" night.

Drop dead gorgeous, July-like evening and a perfect time to drive to Hope for pizza at Bear's Ice House.

So, we did.

We sat upstairs on the deck and watched the lake show off its pure beauty.

We visited with one of the local musicians who was taking his elderly father to dinner.

I visited with our pizza maker Kim, a former student, and then we went on our way.

I walked down the old highway to a new watering hole called Trish's Place.

It's run by another former student.

Next week, I'll tell you more about her new venture in what was Dona and Dave Meehan's Edelhaus Restaurant.

Trish has bought it and lives there with her kids.

This morning I'm headed over to a field on Selle Road where antique tractors are plowing 20 acres. I'll take my camera and post some photos tomorrow.

It's another beautiful day, not to be wasted in our North Idaho Heaven on Earth.

Big change from the winter griping, right?

Happy Saturday to all.
