Bumming around....

This weekend the outlaws came to visit.
So we bummed around.. first separately,
(men /women) and then Monday together.

Second hand stores are the main call of affairs.
|Looking for Idaho goodies to sell in her Washington
store.  So we made the rounds on Saturday and
Sunday.
Having lunch and the usual stuff...
The guys went where guys go.. guns shops,
hunting, fishing and etc..

On Monday we all jumped into the pickup and
headed to Bonner's Ferry.  Not a lot open with it being
MLK day.
But did find an antique shop that fit the bill...
Lots of walking around, from one cubby hole to
the next.. seeing things that were in our homes when  
we were kids..
And lots of stuff, we call junk, but it is all in the eye
of the beholder.

And of course a trip to Bonner's Ferry isn't complete
with out a stop at the Mennonites store. First the store
itself, and then next door to the restaurant side.  The King
and I were smart.. rather we were still kind of full from
breakfast. So we ordered half sandwich and he had ice
tea and I had a latte.  But the Outlaws had a full nelson
sandwich.  Boy, were they surprised when they got it...

See a full nelson sandwich up there..  is about 8
inches across. Need less to say one ate half.. the other
ate a quarter and asked for boxes...  They make the
best sandwiches.

Had heard about the Border Patrol new building..
which is rumored to have Homeland Security inside
as well. It is a complex of many building with green roofs.
I was kind of disappointed... as I had heard it was a 3 story, block/block size. It is several buildings of varies sites.
With a rather tall large chain link fence around it..

We headed home, and even with the overcast day, there
was sunshine the closer we got to our town.. making a

enjoyable and beautiful view drive.
