Coeur d'Alene Saturday

We began again with a great breakfast at Lutherhaven.

After breakfast we drove to Dick & Jill's house to board our bus for a tour of the area. Our first stop was at the Cataldo Mission, a mission built to serve the Coeur d'Alene Indians back in the early 1800s.

From the mission we went to Enasville to the Snake Pit for lunch. We had a great buffet and enjoyed looking at the items on the walls. The place has been there since the 1880s.

After lunch we continued our journey to the town of Murray where we visited the Spar Pole Museum which displayed and eclectic collection of things from the area.

Our tour continued to Sand Point on Lake Pend Oreille and then back to Coeur d'Alene for pizza at Dick & Jill's.  Another great day.
