DAY 21

We woke up in our strange corner of the forest and left to find a more suitable place to make breakfast. We couldn't have found a better breakfast spot. 


Our descent out of the Colville national forest dropped us into a cold fog bank following the pend orielle river. 


Highway 20 follows this river south into the border town of Newport WA.  We saw some pretty sights and even went to bible camp along the way. And in the early afternoon, we finally made it into the promised land. 


After spending over a week in Washington, I was ready to go into an other state. But scenic Idaho surpassed all my expectations. 


It was beauuutiful. In particular I was really into a place called Standpoint. We went right over to the beach to take a little dip. The beach was packed with people. I won't rant too much about Standpoint, but if you ask Mike he'll let you know how much I liked it. 


We were told we could just set up camp anywhere off the highway.  So we rode into the sunset. 


Peeeerfect weather and scenery. 



We ran out of light sooner than we expected and set up camp a bit off the highway in a place that we deemed the worst campsite yet.
