St. Mary's in Cottonwood

Next stop, Cottonwood, Idaho. This is the train trestle that was behind the house we stayed in. Hubby Doc and a friend had to climb up and check out the view. Gorgeous country and a super little hospital with friendly people. We really enjoyed this gig. The house we stayed in was big enough to have visitors, so our friends came up from our home town for a weekend. We had a great time going to a Pow Wow in a nearby town. So crazy, we ran into a Doc that used to work with my hubby at the Pow Wow. He retired and is living in the area.

Hubby Doc liked seeing the Native American patients in the clinic. He especially liked the elderly people who told him of some of the folklore. Having some Indian heritage of his own, he is very interested in the culture.

Another weekend, we took a car trip up toward the north to see the Palouse. That is a high grassy plain. Vistas as far as you could see,with nothing but wheat fields. Lots of cute little towns and friendly people.

Thanks Cottonwood. We wouldn't mind going back there.
