Lee was one of our friends in the Boise "On the River" campground...lived in Alaska for 20 years! He raised two children by himself there, bought both of his children houses when they graduated from college, is thinking of buying a home in Boise, and travels in his Springdale! He had a martini and cigar every night. His dog, Pete, was the best obedient dog in the park!
Dave is a doctor still practicing, and Suzie is a nurse. Rosy was our "love" - loved treats, loved petting, loved his plastic squeaky doll! We camped right next to them for most of our stay, until we moved into our trailer furnished by Nelson's RV.
We then were camped by Diane and Dennis from Atlanta, GA. We admired them so much for their simple lifestyle while camping. They had a 16 foot Scamp and stayed in it for six months in Boise during the summer! They cooked simply, and loved the simple pleasures of watching the sun set, the moon rise and especially the Harvest Moon. She retired from teaching and Dennis worked for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. They had Townie bikes which we finally purchased for ourselves. We would bike ride on the Greenbelt which followed the Boise River for miles! Nice times in the ol' campground.
This was taken in Rocky Mountain National Park on Monday, the 27th. You can see our trailer looks just like new!!!
You can't even see the gouge at the back of the side of the trailer - the fiberglass man was fantastic! There is a stripe at the top of either side to cover the holes we drilled to put in eyehooks to ratchet the back in as tight as we could!
More photos soon of the orange aspen trees on our 2 mile hike....and hopefully some photos of the male elk as they are in rutting season here...hope to hear lots of bugling tonight!
