used to be a common sight at Lucky Peak Dam but since the 1980's they only open the flood gates and have the "rooster tail"
early in the spring of good water years. There was a steady stream of traffic to view the "rooster tail" and they even allowed us to drive up and over the dam and down a utility road to get a better view.
It was awesome.We had our picnic up at the reservoir.
I've always heard that the Oregon Trail runs right along the Boise River in east Boise and that you can still see the trail. They recently made an Interpretive Trail center right off Highway 20, so we stopped, checked it out and took a hike.
It was very interesting and amazing to see that the wagon ruts still exist.Sunday, Chef Tom and Taylor treated me to Bullseye eggs for breakfast and Terriyaki shrimp and steak for Sunday dinner after church. Sunday evening, we invited the Morris' family over for dessert. I made a yummy White Chocolate Cheesecake with strawberries. It was so fun having Charlie and Lucille and Amanda,
Isaac and Olivia, and Christie, Omar, Suzy, Charly, and Maya
over to visit and wish Grandma a happy Mother's Day!

Sounds like a great Mother's Day! I am impressed with "Chef Tom's" menu!!
Happy Mother's Day!! Looks like although it was a cold picnic it was a lot of fun. I don't even recognize Christy's kids! They are so big and grown up!
What a fun day! Happy belated Mother's day!
Sounds like an amazing time!!! I remember going and seeing the rooster tail too! Good times!
I'm glad that you got to have a Mother's Day picnic. It sounds like you had a fun party!
You have to admit, Taylor and I set the bar pretty high. Can't wait for Father's Day!
