State Fairs, Baseball, and Bike Rides

Kory and I decided to pack it in on the last weekend of summer. We went to the Eastern Idaho State Fair in Blackfoot on Saturday morning. We always look at a few exhibits and then the real purpose is the food. So.....raisin cookies, pronto pup, homemade bread and honeybutter, Mexican corn, and ice cream. That night we went to the Chukar's game. Saw some good plays. Had some hotdogs and funnel cake. On Labor Day we loaded up our bikes and headed to Teton Valley. We hopped on the old rail trail from Tetonia to Ashton. We started in Tetonia. The first couple of miles were pretty rocky and I was a little worried about my bike tires.  Then things leveled out and got more sandy and packed gravelish. We crossed some streams and saw the beginnings of fall color.  Near Bitch Creek we crossed a big trestle.  We ended at Lamont, about 15 miles out of Tetonia. Kory's dad came and picked us up and we all went to lunch at O'Roarke's. Beautiful trail. N
