Oregon Trip-Day 1: Twin Falls

We're Back!! YEAH!! We got back late last night after 14 hours on the road. Tired. Very Tired. Happy to sleep in my own bed. Over the next few days I will be taking you along on our journeys. Hope you enjoy it.

We started our trip on a Thursday morning heading north toward Idaho. We made our first pit stop in Twin Falls to fill up the car and get a quick snack. We drove over the bridge into Twin Falls and saw this beautiful view of the Valley. It is so stunningly beautiful and as we were leaving I was excited to see a way to pull off the road by the side of the bridge. We were able to get out of the car to have a look.

See this beautiful view of the Snake River Gorge in Twin Falls? You can actually see one of the water falls in the distance in the upper middle of the picture. Click on the picture if you want a closer look.


This is the Ira Burton Perrine Bridge that we drove over going into Twin Falls, Idaho. It spans the Snake River on Hwy 84 going into town. Click on Ira's name to learn more about him.


My son loves to golf so I took this picture of the golf course in the valley below. Isn't it gorgeous?


Mark and Kenna coming down the stairs from the freeway toward the viewing area located below the bridge. You will see the waterfall and golf course off in the distance.


We were told that this is the spot where Evel Knievel jumped the Snake River. He shot off in a rocket from the left side to the right side in the picture seen below. I linked to the information above if you click on Evel's name.

Climbing back up the stairs.

Kenna running to the car so we can get back on the road.

FYI: During our trip I made it to 2 quilt shops and 1 Fabric store.
