Peace in the Panhandle

{A Night in the Idaho Wilderness}

P. and I left Oregon and headed east and north into the coniferous dreamland of the Idaho panhandle, through tiny canyon towns with names like Halfway, White Bird and Horseshoe Bend. We wound our way through the mountains until evening, then broke camp somewhere in the middle of the 2.3 million acres of Payette National Forest.  No one else. Just us, the dogs, the pines, and, for a fleeting, wondrous moment, a grazing mule deer doe.









Hope you have a marvelous weekend.
