It seems that while we were away enjoying the rain and lightening storms in New Hampshire, they were enjoying a dry heat wave and lightening storms which set off the 11 wildfires covering several thousands of acres all told... I hope this isn't a bad year for fires!

I was stationed there in the 1970's. Take rte 20 and for a short trip, go to Anderson Ranch Dam and reservoir. Beautiful area. Or drive to Sun Valley. or go southeast of the town to Bruneau Canyon, then continue to the C J Strike Dam and back to Mt Home. or go to Boise and enjoy the beautiful park.
Yeah, I loved the area.
Hope you don't get delayed too much.
