We arrived in Pocatello, Idaho yesterday afternoon, on our way back to Yellowstone for another season. We are staying in the RV park of the Fort Hall casino, visiting with some co-worker friends that are also on their way to work in Yellowstone this summer.

We spent last winter at Thompson's Mills again, which gave us a chance to get Don's mom moved to Wisconsin, where she can get some assistance with her mobility issues related to her knees. She will be living with friends that we've known for many decades.

While we were at the mills we had -

Snow

Rain, LOTS OF RAIN, which flooded the mill a couple times

 

 

Ice

 

Great Blue Herons 

Nutria 

Bald Eagles

 

 

Beautiful sunsets

Rainbows

 

and a good time.

Don was able to get a security camera system installed in and around the mill. He also built a floor for one of the chicken coups, so we don't have to walk in the mud when we go inside it to clean it out. We gave the usual tours to the guests and had a couple of school groups come through, one of which was 120 second graders from Philomath.
