Trip to Coeur d'Alene
Tela had told me the wrong weekend to come to the Harmon Family Camping Trip - everybody else arrived the previous weekend. But as I was making plans, I discovered most people were still there. This ended up perfect for me, because it allowed me to go to the Beloved Festival last weekend, and still meet up with Family this weekend!
Tela picked me up from the airport Friday noon, and we had a great talk all the way to CDA. She laughed at my adventures a lot, saying all the festivals I went to were Faerieworlds lol.
We met up with everyone over at CDA lake, and I did some wakeboarding with Betty's boys, showing them how to get up. Then we all went back to Mom&Dad's to have hot dogs and other stuff. Friday night we all went to the Coer d'Alene casino to have their all-you-can-eat crab. I ended up making a spectacle of myself among the family because I ate so much :).
We spent Saturday night at their camp, then spent Saturday on Pend Orielle Lake. We wakeboarded some more, hung out at the beach, and also were privileged enough to see a mountain goat and her baby on the cliffs!
Saturday evening I cooked hamburgers for everyone, we all hung out, then Kim and I hit the bars. At one point a girl in the bar called me out for cheating on Kim anytime she left lol. I introduced Kim, said she was my sister, and we had a great conversation after that. I did discover that I like the Portland weird scene much more than CDA though. People are much more interesting here.
Sunday morning I went on a bike ride with Dan and Dar, then we all went to the Mongolian Grill for lunch, then I met with an old high school friend: Jim Windisch at Sharis, and talked for a while.
Then I came back, took a nap, and Tela dropped me off at the airport to go home. Had a very nice relaxing time.
