Trip to Grace - Dad's Birthday

On Dad's birthday he wanted to drive to Grace, ID - we had never been there and he took his fishing pole!  On the way we saw some beautiful fall colors on the mountains.
 We live in a pretty part of the world!
 The colors were stunning with the sun on them!
 This is the Bear River - jut outside of Grace.
 Dad fished for only a little bit - said he caught a lot of moss!  He only had lures and said this needed flies - he will probably go back.  I read a book while he fished ... perfect.
 "Dead Skunk in the middle of the road"  - find that song on google and listen - Sophie and Grace and I laughed at it in June when we visited NC.
 Close up for Auntie Emilee! ... just like the song says:  "stinking to High Heaven!"
 Dad wanted me in a picture - I could have passed on that ... but it was his birthday!
 See that old water flow wooden pipe in the background?  That was built in 1902 - and brought water to both sides of the valley - so they could raise crops.
Look who came to visit?  Wonderful Amy Mortensen!  She had business in Pocatello so came from Twin Falls - and we were so happy to have her visit for a couple hours - fun catching up on their family happenings.
