Summer 2015 at Winchester Lake State Park, Idaho

 About 340 people live in Winchester, Idaho.  It got its name in 1900 during a
 town meeting when a stack of Winchester rifles were observed by the door.  
This giant Winchester rifle spans the entire street.

 You drive over this upon entering the park.  I had to ask what 
guberif was all about.  You read it backwards.

 I love catching better that fishing.  They were delicious.
These are about 14 inchers I got right off one of the docks.

 A nice lazy afternoon.  I did find out that this 
spot is where all the little tiny fish are.  

 "Harry Potters" Snowy Owl is the coolest.

 We had a fledgling Bald Eagle by our lake for a couple of weeks.
This is about as close at Cathy could get before the eagle began "talking".
Did you know that they don't get their distinctive white heads till they are 5 yrs old?

 One of the many benefits of camp hosting is being
able to observe local wild life.

 Here Don (left) and Stuart are preparing the campgrounds 
float for the towns 4th of July parade.

Here's Cathy viewing Winchester Lake.  Great place for PMA (positive mental attitude).
