Getting hungry....


Waiting for the fire to burn down so we can cook some hot dogs. 

Crystal Springs Hot Springs

It's good to be somewhere to be able to settle in again. We'll be calling this little cabin home for the next 2 days. 


And will be soaking in this hot (106*) pond. 😎

Lexa is anxiously waiting for Anthony to return from the store with some staples. 







Headed to Crystal Crane Hot Springs

We left Jerome, ID at about noon today. Driving through that part of Idaho is pretty monotonous....not much to look at. After getting into Oregon there still wasn't much but the scenery got prettier. 

This place was aptly named Little Valley. 


Nice pano

The mighty huntress!

Yesterday we walked way down into a meadow so Lexa could run free for awhile and do dog things. There were lots of little critter holes and I think Lexa's mission was to jam her nose down every one of them. 
Then she got really serious about one hole....alternately digging & jamming her nose down the hole. Suddenly she jumped & flipped a little critter up in the air. I think it startled her as much as the poor rodent! She went after it & much to her dismay it darted down another hole. 

Back in the car you can see evidence of her little escapade. 😄

A lazy Friday morning

We had a nice lazy morning....slept in, got up & had coffee & breakfast, then started packing up to head out. We didn't leave until almost noon! We're headed to the Twin Falls, ID area where we'll most likely find a motel for the night. 
Here are some pics from our drive back down Beartooth Hwy yesterday. 



These elk were just chillin' right in the middle of town in Mammoth. We got ice cream & walked around town. Lexa met & got to play with a shepherd/corgi mix puppy. They played hard and had a ball.
