Day 12 ~ Evening

Today, Chig's birthday, got off to a slow start. Joe (9) and Sam (6) ended their camping adventure in our motorhome. We returned them safely to their Aunt Andrea's home where they are awaiting the return of their parents from Montana.
We washed the car, finished packing, fixed lunch, stopped for gas and headed North at 1:00. The highway from Boise is very windy with many elevated passes. We decided to make it a short day by stopping for the night in the resort town of McCall. Payette lake is beautiful and the area reminds me of Lake Tahoe on a smaller scale.
The state park where we wanted to stay was full so we ended up at a KOA. There was a manuever difficulty at the park entrance and we once more disconnected our tow car before we could continue. We picked a site on the bluff right above the Payette River. After struggling with an electrical breaker that kept tripping, we set up our table and chairs and watched deer at the river's edge. It is really pretty here, very quiet and very relaxing.
