Up the road to Fish Haven Idaho

My last trip to Utah included a short side trip to see family in Idaho.

Fish Haven Idaho

I tease them a lot about it. It is not very big and I think it has a silly name, but it is a nice place to spend some time in the summer (they like it in winter too but you know I hate the cold).

 These first three pictures were taken out the window while we drove up to Idaho. 

 It is not always this green.

 It is a beautiful drive any time.

 First view of Bear Lake

There is a place you can pull over to take pictures of this first view. I have not been up there in more than 30 years. I forgot just how lovely it really is.

 Bear Lake in the distance

This is taken at a different spot at the same stop. Doesn't it just call to you? 

 Purple Wildflower

Color everywhere you look. 

 Raspberry Stand

Speaking of color, this place is just as you go into town. Fresh picked Raspberries, doesn't that sound tasty on a hot summers day?

 The Tree Lady

I don't know her story. She is carved from a tree stump then painted. She stands sentinel at the side of the road.

 Boats

Here you can see why Fish Haven attracts so many visitors in the summer. Lovely spot, great fishing!

 Peaceful View

How would you like to wake up and look at that with your first cup of coffee?

 Residents

Here are a couple of full time Fish Haven Residents. They offered to give me a tour, for fish of course.

 Glady's Place

Interior view. Need drinks, ice, lottery tickets, souvenirs, or just someone nice to talk to for a few? Stop on in. If your lucky my great niece will make you a sandwich.

 Booths in the back

If you need a break, here is a great spot. Glady's has booths where you can eat that sandwich.

 Can't miss it

Just look for the sign.

Parting view

Can you see all the poppies in bloom?

It is a short post, but it was a quick trip. Hope you enjoyed it. I sure did.

See you next time

Cheers,
