Retired Old Men Eating Out

We met these gentleman while dining at The Nook in Salmon, Idaho. The four of them get in a crew cab Ford Pickup that has been Roush customized. Two of them are retired law enforcement.

They travel every Thursday to a different locale and explore the restaurants and the sights of the area. 

The gentleman on the top right has Alzheimer's disease. The next day, he does not remember their travel and adventure. After each outing, one of the men writes a detailed report of the happenings, during that outing, and gives it to the affected man's wife so he has a written memory of his life with the quartet. How cool is that.

They had just received the below sticker that day and I was honored to receive it.

Copper is the Trick for Refreshment

Dining At The Edge in Orofino, Idaho

The Edge restaurant in Orofino was resplendent in its new remodel as we met for dinner. We made a new friend in Rebecca, who was our server. She is originally from Portland and lives with her dog, Kai. She is an adventure event racer and was clearly in great shape. The entire dining experience was one of the best ever and Rebecca was a big part of it.


Also, Rowdy and RipCity found the water was especially refreshing in the copper glasses. The restaurant may be missing a couple of them.
