We went for the weekend in Lewiston ID for Jack's birthday weekend. Dad rented a state park cabin at Hells Gate State Park and arranged for a jet boat tour up the Snake River. The cabin was nice and so was the campground. We rented a small Uhual trailer so the kids were able to take their bikes. The campground had plenty of trails to ride on.
We also went to the local aquatic center to swim. It had a lazy river, a couple waterslides and a wave pool. It was a nice way to spend the afternoon. Amelia, Jack and I was in the water the whole time. Jacob slept and Dad hung out some and swam some. I think Jacob slept most of the time because he had just finished up Tri Tech and was super tired. He slept most of the day on Saturday, even once back at camp.
I really like Idaho so I hope we can go back there as a family more often. I know our days of family vacations are becoming limited so I hope we can. I also see we need to change our family vacation from free range camping time to some actual activity, like the jet boat tour. Our teenagers are losing their ability to imagine and play but still aren't adult enough to appreciate sitting quietly. lol
