Matt is a terrific cook and we have eaten well this week - spaghetti with his special sauce, lamb chops, bell peppers stuffed with ground turkey, grilled tri-tip steak, and tonight fried turkey breast with all the trimmings - just great!

Wednesday Matt took us to see Merilee at their store, Idaho Bag Lady. It's a really neat boutique that specializes in handbags with exchangeable exteriors (Miche Bag), Lindsay Phillips sandals and shoes with exchangeable snaps and straps, and interchangeable watches and jewelry just to mention some items there.

Yesterday Mike and Matt watched feed corn being harvested and mulched in the field across the street from Matt and Merilee's house. It was really interesting to see the corn being cut and then ground all in one operation. Mike took a movie of the operation and you definitely wouldn't want to get in the way of the harvester.
Then Matt took us to lunch at the Spurwing Country Club where we had a great lunch. Matt had the Dagwood sandwich and Mike and I had a chef salad - it was huge and very good.

Matt and Merilee have a Keurig coffee maker and we had decided that whenever our current coffee maker died, we would get a Keurig coffee maker. Well - we decided today to retire our coffee maker and we went to Costco and bought a Keurig B70 coffee maker. I cleaned our old coffee maker and we're donating it to the organization Matt and Merilee donate to - The Arc in Boise.
Today is our last day here and the time has gone by so fast. The last couple of nights we've shown Matt and Merilee some of the photos we took on our trip to Alaska.
We're hoping to be able to have Merilee and Matt join us sometime on a trip - what a great time we would have together!
