The Two RV Gypsies: Full-Time RVers
returned to the USA
and traveled to Coeur d'Alene
in Idaho August 12 -13, 2015

The two RV Gypsies drove their RV through Bonners Ferry, Idaho and remembered the fun they had here the last time they visited.

Below: The two RV Gypsies arrived at Alpine RV Park. It was convenient to have a gas station in front of the park. The sites were nice. No Wi-Fi or TV. But, the two RV Gypsies are out of their RV having fun most of the time anyway.

Below; The two RV Gypsies signed up for a little cruise on Lake Coeur d'Alene, but first they took a walk around the park and enjoyed the sunny day.

Below: The city of Coeur d'Alene had an Art in Motion Walking Tour and an Art in Motion Biking Tour event. The two RV Gypsies came upon two of the pieces of art before it was time for their cruise.

Below: Mudgy taking a nap, one of five life-size Mudgy Moose statues by local artist Terry Lee.

Below: The Coeur d'Alene Resort is a luxury resort hotel in Coeur D’Alene, Idaho. Located on the north shore of Lake Coeur d'Alene. The resort features a marina, convention facilities, spa, as well as a notable 18-hole golf course with the 14th hole being a floating green. The hotel had 338 rooms and suites, and its main tower has 18 floors.

Below: The Floating Green (14th hole) which opened for play in 1991. The course was featured in the video game Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2005.

Below: Back on land, the two RV Gypsies strolled along the world's longest floating boardwalk. (The word Floating being a key word here). 3,300 feet long and 12 feet wide, featuring a swinging gate for sailboats and a bridge for powerboat entry. The boardwalk rims a 3720 slip marina, and has a picnic and rest area as well as a marine convenience store.

Below; There was lots of art: statues and memorials all around the park.
