Spontaneous FHE / Fishing Trip

Celeste enjoyed looking at the creek, trees, and campfire.

We went to Birch Creek last night. It's a BLM campground that is 9+ miles long. I've made many maps of it. Scott caught a lot of little rainbow trout. Celeste and Bethany enjoyed the scenery. We had chili dogs and dutch oven peach cobbler. We were lucky to find a can opener for sale at the cafe up the highway because ours didn't come on the trip. It's a neat area. The Lemhi Shoshone camped and hunted here. There is a large panel of prehistoric rock paintings across the highway from there. The Nez Perce had a skirmish with miners here when they were fleeing the US military. There are old mines and ghost towns. We hope to go camping in the mountains above it in August when the snow melts.

Celeste Watching the Fire

Tomorrow (May 6) is going to be a very exciting day! We get to go to the Bonneville County Court house to finalize Celeste's adoption. We are very excited and working on getting ready for the celebration.
