Island Park Trip

This weekend Evan and I did a little road trip to Island Park, Idaho (just below Yellowstone) for a snowmobiling adventure. It was great! Our lodge was right on the Snake River with incredible views. There were hardly any other visitors at the lodge so we basically had the undivided attention of the staff. The food was truly amazing! The cook was a little black man from Louisiana with a true gift. Evan did some male bonding with him over "Gator" on the Sci Fi channel; obviously a guy thing. We had a nice snowstorm blow in the evening after we arrived, which was kind enough to stop by 9:30 am so as not to interfere with our snowmobiling. We set out on a 20 mile ride to Mesa Falls through Targhee National Forest and didn't see another human being for a good two hours. Wow! was it ever beautiful! Evan is hooked! We are definitely going back with the rest of the family next year...or maybe sooner. We'd like to put together a summer rafting trip with any other willing family members. Think about it folks! :-)
