Idaho BS thread in the PNW

Yeah. My Nephew lives in Troy ID (by Lewiston) and freinds in Hamilton. Like to hit as many back roads as I can when I visit. Cool area for exploring.

 

Did my good samaritan deed last night. I helped a down biker get home on Hwy 55 just near just before smiths ferry.

 

Hey guys, thanks for all the revenge tips. all that sounds like fun. If I hadn't been able to get out, then I might have been motivated to do something on that level. After breaking the window and rolling it out of the way (so I could get away) but it was not necessary.

 

Went camping up at Trinity Lake on Monday with my old man. Had the place to ourselves. The smoke up there was brutal. We saw a moose with a baby, a lot of deer tracks and a spike muley right outside the tent.

Went up at by Anderson Ranch Reservior and came down through Prarie.

 

I found some old Indian hieroglyphs down past Anderson ranch dam reservoir. That area is neat to look at when you come down the hill towards the dam.

 

Where's the best place in town to get rims, tires and get my brakes done? Anyone have any recommendations? TIA

 

Thank you! Hopefully they'll do brakes too if my brother can't get time to help me!

 

Are they well known or is it private info? I'm sure my kids would like to see them.

 

Discount Tire does not do brakes, just wheels and tires.

 

Front brakes, back brakes or both? I'll bet an offer for a six pack of beer will get someone to come give you a hand. Especially front brake pads, last time I changed those was 45 minutes from first lug nut removed to rolling down the road. Just a thought...

 

Ok, good to know. Thank you.

Lol!! I will keep that in mind if my brother can't do it. I had to ask him to help my daughter with her car today instead so I'm just gonna wait a little longer.

Fought with the ex all day over my rims and tires so I just figured I might go get new ones and have them do my brakes too but I'll probably just throw my stock wheels on for now until I can afford new ones and get the brakes done another time....

 

Bring new brake pads and come to my house this weekend and I'll do your brakes with you. I have all the tools, and my own beer.

 

Dang it! Just now saw this! I'll have to reschedule for another weekend or something! That's super awesome of you!

 

Next weekend won't work as I'll be in Seattle area for Tough Mudder. After that, you probably still won't want to come here because I am guessing you are in South Idaho, and I am about an hour northwest of Coeur d'Alene. If you do want to come by some weekend, I should be available to help out. I also have a spare bedroom. Disclaimer, I have 4 dogs, 1 of which will only tolerate you (Jack Russell mix), and 3 that will sound like they are wanting to tear your throat out, but will really kill you with kisses and beating you with their tails (pitbulls). Then there are the cats, goats, and horses.

 

Lol, well it was a nice gesture anyways! I'm sure I can get my brother to do them at some point but thank you!! I'll keep that in mind if I'm ever over that way though!!

 

Any of y'all have a reg cab with shell and a plate that says "FEESHIN" or something to that extent? Saw it when I was headed into Boise today on 84.

 

I've been sneaking in and outta here for the last year

We use the MEPS downtown to process people for the Navy. Sacramento MEPS is closer but our territory layout makes us have to use Boise. I like coming up here though so no big deal making the drive 2-3x/mo

 

Staying over by the university by Elmer's this time. Any recommendations on restaurants close by? Tried the pizza place, elmers and the shed so far.

Usually rotate between here and by the mall depending on what I can get within the allowed price range.

 

DO you have car?? IF so there Wasabi sushi place that is good,La Tapatia which is Mexican restaurant. IF you go down town have little bit more money Lock stock and barrel is good steak place. Barabaoca grill is good place but pretty pricey. Most of these are on park center.

If you like little town feel try out Bown's crossing. There is few Restaurants there. One being flat bread pizza.

 

so close, should do papa joes. that place was one of my favorites when i was in college. Juniper down town also is one of my favorites in boise for apps and drinks
