..and then there was the birthday … (or wasn’t that why we went?)

The impetus for the road trip with mom was to spend my sister Claudia’s birthday with her in Idaho. We got somewhat side-swipped by the horrific fires – and a visit that might have included some trail hikes, some strolls through the neighborhood and two nights at the lovely outdoor symphony in Sun Valley were all replaced by indoor activities. That meant – jigsaw puzzles and rented movies. Not a worry in sight, we made the most of it! A shared a bottle of champagne (or two), we snuck our for sushi at Jo’s in Hailey, visited Jimmy’s new airplane, and had a great visit.
