KOA, Twin Falls , Idaho : Another beautiful, warm
sunny day today. We headed back to the Perrine Bridge and walked down to the
overlook to check it out and take some pictures. Imagine our surprise when we watched one base
jumper after another leap from the top of this 486 foot bridge. They free-fall for a couple of seconds and
then pull their chute. Watched about 15
of these intrepid individuals. Then
drove over to Shoshone Falls and then over to Dierkes Lake Park . Also drove down to the historic part of Twin Falls which was really nice. Dinner at Cajino’s Italian Restaurant and
then back to our park. Pooped. 92 degrees today and got really windy. What a pretty area this is.

Dierkes Lake Park. A fantastic recreation area on this pristine lake. |
Some people getting ready to jump off the rocks surrounding the lake. |
Twin Falls--they diverted the other falls for power generation purposes (sigh). |
