Silverwood and Domoni's

So, while staying in Spokane, we decided to take a little trip out to a few small towns in Idaho to learn a little about Tyler's heritage and family.  Setting out early our first stop was...Cabelas.  Ok, I know thats not a town, but we decided to stop at the hunting store and look around before we hit our first stop, Kellogg, Idaho.  This is a small town that doesn't really have much.  The main attraction there was a gondola that was giant.  We spent about half an hour getting up to the top of the mountain and half an hour getting back down, but it was definitely worth it.  Then we went to another little town called Wallace.  I think that Tylers Grandma grew up there, so we walked through some of the old antique shops.  Our main purpose while we were there was to get a huckleberry shake, because this part of the US is known for their huckleberry products.  Unfortunately we couldn't find one, so we headed home and stopped in Pinehurst at the "Tall Pine Drive In" for a burger and shake.  The huckleberry shake was amazing, but maybe thats because we were so thirsty and craving it so badly.  In addition, Tyler got a bacon burger, and it was picture perfect (:

 I think that we decided on going to Silverwood theme park the following day.  Both of us have been to this park multiple times, and it has just kept growing as fast as we have.  It was a really hot day and there were lots of people and lots of lines, but we still had a great time.  We went on a few roller-coasters and Tyler even faced his fear of a spinning ferris wheel.  When we were ready to eat we ate at the only real food restaurant in the park.  I had a Gingham salad, filled with fruit, almonds and gorgonzola cheese, not to mention the amazing poppyseed dressing.  Tyler had a Turkey Burger which was also delicious

Turkey and Provolone

The next day we also had a great feast upon us.  Tylers family has known about this little deli shop in Spokane for ages, and this place serves the best deli sandwiches.  They serve heaping portions, with a side of popcorn.  We even read on the wall that each sandwich comes with two bowls of popcorn!  We met Tylers sister, Emily here for lunch and we all left feeling happy and full.  I ordered the Tiny portion of Turkey and Provolone (which was definitely not tiny), Em ordered the Ruben, and Tyler ordered the Pastrami and Cheddar Jack.  We all also shared the sweet honey mustard, which complemented the sandwiches perfectly.  We highly recommend this place because of their amazing sandwiches.
