Every year since I was little (since my Mom was little in fact) we have a family reunion at Priest Lake, ID. It is one of my favorite places ever. John does not share this opinion however, so I think some of it must be its sentimental value to me. If you are not familiar with Priest Lake, it is in the top of the Idaho panhandle. It is surrounded by beautiful forest. The lake is clean, and shallow for a long way out. We go to the beach from 9-5 each day. We sit, visit, swim, eat, nap, jet ski, tube, and just relax. I played there with my cousins growing up, and now we watch our kids play together. There are about 150 of us now, bigger every year. After a day at the beach, we go up to camp and have a delicious dinner together, prepared by the aunts and uncles. The kids play behind the camp, with parents warning that there was a bear around camp that morning. We do this for 3 days, then pack up, already making plans to come back the next year. I love it.

I think it's beautiful. Northern Idaho? I have never been farther than Lewiston, Id. Maybe I'll invite myself to your reunion next year.
