Quickly Checking In

Deep in the throws of our vacation. This morning Anna, Alek, and I set out on the Little Salmon River for the purpose of catching some fish. As a result we just finished eating a late lunch of trout dredged in seasoned flour and fried in butter, along with a summer salad and a glass of Pinot Grigio. All was followed up with a not too small slice of cheesecake for Anna and me, and a moderate dole of ice cream for Alek. I must say that I’m deep in a culinary bliss.

Soon we are meeting up with some friends and going on a back-country excursion. Perhaps we’ll be back by dark.

Perhaps.

Quick note: On the way through Boise we stopped and met up with Casey for a quick visit. It’s always a pleasure to meet up with fellow bloggers and chew the fat. Both Casey and I are Idaho yokels from our inception which meant that in the few short minutes that we talked we quickly hit some common ground.

Remember that invite, Casey, if you and your family are ever through Salt Lake City.

i’m jealous. glad you’re having a good time.

speaking of food, last night the wife and i had a fabulous entree of preserved stawberries and butter of peanuts glazed generously on whole wheat bread; a bed of crispy, fried potatoes cut in a crinkly style and dusted with the powder of a barbeque reduction; and a tall glass of sparkling water flavored with the dew of a mountain. for dessert we each had just the barest sliver of Ring Ding washed down with a goblet of the mammary secretions of grain-fed bovines. Divine!

yeah, i’m jealous. hope the rest of your trip is as fun and gastronomically fulfilling!

Ring Ding ....

Bastard! Now I’m jealous.

Say Hi to Dad and Mom-step… from another idahoan.
Enjoy and have a great time.
Thinking of taking the girls home for a few days to.

Hey, Sue, long time. I did tell them. They wanted me to tell you hello right back.

Go ahead, take the girls home. 4th of July, huh? I wish I could make it back then, but can never seem to.

Ah… Salmon River. Love it. Fished it up one side and down the other.

Even caught a sturgeon in it once…

Wish I was there in Riggins smelling the water…
