This lakeside Idaho town has two breweries, a couple of adorable coffee shops, a disproportionate number of thrift shops, and even a large indoor ice rink. Adding to the pro's of a winter time visit to McCall is the proximity of outdoor snowy fun to the downtown area. Skiing, snowshoeing, and natural hot springs are all with easy driving (and in some cases walking) distance.

We only spent a few moments in Coeur d'Alene to grab some dinner and take a quick walk along the lake, but it was beautiful and we plan to go back for a longer visit.
My trip to Boise was particularly business heavy so I didn't get to do much exploring since I was either working or exhausted from working. On the first morning, I did get to see this fabulous sunrise though!
Right now, I'm in Moscow, Idaho.
So far I've eaten at Qdoba Mexican Grill, Applebee's, and Smokey Mountain Pizza. Qdoba is not as good as Chipotle and I think I may have gotten a bit of cross contamination from something at Applebees, so thats not so great. I think it may just be dairy though, not as bad as gluten for me.
