10th June, 2009. Travel to Coeur d' Alene

Well up and away this morning, travelled over the Bitterroot Range, a beautiful area of rivers and valleys, and then coming down to Lake Coeur d' Alene. After a bit of hassle finding the RV camp we booked in, the owners were most helpful, so we had a quick lunch and took off to the "Bucks" knife factory for a tour, bowled in there 2 mins late only to be told we were an hour early - time change at the Idaho boarder, never mind, time to do some shopping.
Bucks Knife factory was founded in 1902, pretty impressive and they have some cool knives.
Then on to a sporting shop, "Cabela's", if you have never been to a Cabela's, next time you see one, GO, they are impressive - they are huge, in fact a plane hangs off one part of the ceiling and it is hardly noticeable. All sorts there, but additional is the restaurant, shooting gallery, Huge trout tank etc etc.
Back home for Craig to get his hair cut by his trustee hairdresser, she did a fine job.
Dinner and then a walk down to the floating restaurant and marina - very nice, USA in a depression????????????? No one told this lot.
