Twin Falls, Idaho - June 15, 2011

Greetings Blog Buddies on this 15th day of June, 2011.  

The picture below will tell you what we did & saw on this fine day, albeit be VERY WINDY with temps in low 70s.  This is my picture of the great Shoshone Falls in Twin Falls.  Rising 212 feet above the Snake River as it winds its way on to Washington and the Pacific Coast, it is absolutely beautiful. 

We were told that these falls are taller than the Niagara Falls.  We were also told that in a couple more days,  the volume of water coming over the falls will diminish as "they" slow down the water coming from the dams this time of year in order to provide irrigation water to the farmlands in this area and to make hydro-electric power for the area.





After a light lunch and treat at DQ, and a car wash by kids from Salvation Army having a blast raising funds so they can go to a water park at the end of summer, 


we spent this afternoon back at the trailer.  As I said, it's been windy so sitting outside was quite out of the question today :( .

G'BYE FROM TWIN FALLS, IDAHO!  
Tomorrow?  Winnemucca, Nevada for 1 night.
