Burley Bound

I totally forgot to blog about this.  Last weekend, Fritz invited me to join him at his son-in-laws birthday party.  They have an absolutely beautiful home in Burley on the Snake River.  I never considered the possibility of living right on the Snake River!  But they do.

So I jumped in the car and headed up for a quick weekend adventure.  I met up with Fritz and we headed over to the party.  Kelli had made some fantastic appetizers.  They also had an open bar and she made the best Sangria!  I really enjoy Fritz's kids but I haven't got to spend much time with them so this was especially fun!

We visited and enjoyed a little libation.  As we sat outside on the deck looking over the river, we watched the sun set.  And before we knew it, it was dark and these youngsters were ready for more play.  So what do you do in Burley?  Well you jump in the car and head to the local dive bar in town.  Of course, it was karaoke night!  There were probably 20 of us at the bar.  I never did sing but Fritz and the kids did.

We had great fun but I admit, I drank more than I should.  Fritz did too.  We were both not very bright bulbs the next day.  But we had fun and it was great to be included in celebrating with some great people.

One thing that still puzzles me is the stall in the ladies room.  They have swinging cowboy saloon doors to each stall (of course).  But there were two big holes cut out.  I was so puzzled, I took a photo.  Is this an Idaho thing? Explain this to me please....

These are my knees as I sit on the pot.  Not low enough to
put legs through.  Absolutely no privacy.  I don't get it.
