Idaho

After visiting family in New York and Utah, we headed up to Idaho for a couple of weeks. One of our first outings was to the City of Rocks near Burley. The park was absolutely beautiful.

During our two weeks, we had a lot of visits from Harmony's extended family.

We took a day-trip to see some sites around Twin Falls. The first stop was the Snake River Canyon by Twin Falls.

On one of our last nights, we went up into the mountains near Burley for an afternoon of four-wheeling and campfire cooking.

Brian, Jaxon and I hiked up to Independence Lakes in the mountains south of Burley for a day of trout fishing. We caught a few- enough to feed us lunch, but not enough to bring home.
