Mike had planned a backroads geocaching excursion to Cottonwood Butte and points beyond for Saturday morning on our way back to town. But – upon researching the roads, he discovered some were impassable for anything but 4-wheelers and we had planned to travel in the Dakota. We were a little disappointed to cancel our plans.
“Where else could we go?” I asked. So, Mike planned an outing in another direction. After crossing the Clearwater at the Arrow Bridge, we took Highway 3 to Juliaetta and located caches on the Juliaetta Genesee Highway, ending with caches at the Thorn Creek Cemetery and in Genesee. We found all eight caches, arriving at the town house about 2:00. [Sorry -- no photos this trip.]
It’s hot here in town – 110+ today. One of the motivations for returning to town this weekend was a cycling club 60-mile ride out of Palouse in which Mike planned to participate. However, it was cancelled due to the heat so he made an early morning ride on his own.
The good things about being here in town? Watching the Olympics in hi-def, air conditioning, swimming, shopping, faster computer, seeing friends, and telephone conversations. KW
