Mesa Falls

We decided to take the scenic route to Island Park over Memorial Day weekend. It was wonderful. I never knew that driving with kids could be so pleasant. All the stars seemed to align for the girls to be happy and pleasant, and Derek and I could talk to each other (crazy, right?). We checked out the flooding in Rigby and then stopped at Mesa Falls. It was really fun. Not only do they have the mini falls and the actual falls, but there is a little gift shop place there that has a lot of interesting animal skins that the kids can touch and look at.

Here is proof of the happy girls in the car. Gwen thought she was pretty funny putting her blanket on her head as her 'hat'.
Yes, it was COLD and WINDY there. There was a little trail that the girls hiked up. Here they are at the summit. About 15 feet up.


Ya know, every now and then that camera timer comes in handy. Here we are at the falls. Right before out camera case fell off the platform, down into the ravine. Never to be seen again. RIP
