Tomato Time

I just picked 20 lbs of tomatoes (and a couple of green peppers and yellow peppers) from my garden. We had planted no less than 4 varieties from the very large to the grape tomatoes which we planted by the back steps so we can grab a handful each time we walk by!!
Who has ever planted a garden and harvested the fruit without giving glory to God?! His creation is AWESOME and AMAZING.



Camping on the Imnaha

Terry and I were fortunate to be able to take a couple 4 days and go camping with friends on the Imnaha. We swam in the river, picked huckleberries and went 4-wheeling. 4-wheeling is not an off road experience like you may envision, but is actually a "travel the less traveled" dirt roads that lace the mountains in this area of the country. You can get to some very beautiful vistas via 4 wheeler.



We stopped by Lick Creek and Diane found this HUGE mushroom growing out of the cut bank of the creek. Anyone want to venture a guess at what kind it is???


It had a fleshy cap so maybe it was edible???? We didn't pick it cause it was so cool and so big.
