Sun Valley Camping Trip

We had to sneak in one final camping trip before the kiddos head back to school next week. We also met up with my mom and Irv, and Vicky and Jim and the girls. We each pulled our trailers to Sun Valley Idaho. None of us had ever been there and we were pleasantly surprised. The Sawtooth National Forest is a beautiful part of the country. The drive there was picturesque and the temperatures were perfect, even in mid-August. Unfortunately we experienced a flat tire on the way up there. But David and I were able to change the tire on the trailer in 40 minutes flat and we were on our way again. We stayed at Easley Campground which was right next to a hotsprings pool. We enjoyed visiting the hotsprings twice, went on a 12 mile bike ride (minus McKinley), and the boys hiked up to the top of one of the ridges by camp. Grandma and Grandpa played hours of card with the kids and we ate like kings! It was a lovely vacation, although we could have stayed a few more days.





It was fun to see everyone and to spend some time in the great outdoors of Idaho.
