After another basement flooding debacle thwarted out plans for a weekend getaway to Coeur d’Alene, we found ourselves traveling a shorter distance to Henry’s Lake State Park over the holiday weekend.
We took a short flat walk along the slough but it was exposed and hot and the air was smokey and we ended up just sitting along the rocky shoreline skipping stones.







How was your Labor Day weekend?
We don’t celebrate Labour Day in France. Nonetheless, I had a great weekend thank you.

Nice photos of your outing! We stayed close to home over the weekend with this dreadfully hot weather. Doing laundry, reading, watching tv…really exciting stuff. 😀

Caught up with laundry and now I see another pile. I at least felt caught up for a day. 😀

Hot!!! And of course this was the weekend we had lots of family here to paint the house…did you know you can’t paint if it’s over 90 degrees? So we painted from 6:30-11am and then from 9-11:30 pm…didn’t get it all done but we got more than half of it done. We also escaped up to Lake Almanor on Sabbath afternoon and otherwise played games inside when it was triple digits.
Skipping stones is a fun way to spend an afternoon though.

I love the seagull photo! We spent our Labor Day weekend pet sitting for our youngest son and his girlfriend while they were out of town.

I love how you didn’t let your failed plans keep you from getting out and experiencing nature. I’ll have to visit this park when I head up to Idaho next year.

We’d honestly have to recommend Harriman State Park or Mesa Falls before Henry’s Lake. It was fine but the first two were better for us. 😊

I love the photos. What a beautiful day and way to spend time when other plans come undone.
