Murder Mystery Rally
We
had a lovely day to go driving around south Ada County in
silly costumes! Our good guy Bronco Fans were on a mission
to find Buster Bronco who had been kidnapped by BSU rival
mascots.
The good guys split up and followed each of the bad guys from
their hideout to two drop sites where they left coded messages
to the keeper of Buster and to Pistol Pete who was to pick
up Buster and take him to Wyoming to be broken and used for
pony rides at the Wyoming State Fair. The good guys stole
the messages and left their own messages for Buster and Pistol
Pete to be at dinner at Smoky Mountain Pizza in Meridian later
that evening. After the good guys retrieved the messages they
rendezvoused to decode the messages. They then checked the
original meeting place to find signs of Buster. When that
was unsuccessful they went to dinner where other Bronco fans
were waiting for them – some looked a lot like the rival
mascots. Pistol Pete also arrived at dinner demanding Buster
who was eventually found in the trunk of a yellow Miata whose
owner still proclaims his innocence.
Before the Snow Flies Run
Mike and Barbara led us on
a lovely drive to the Owyhee Reservoir in Eastern Oregon The
day was crisp, but warmed to be perfect for a fall drive.
We left Nampa on Hwy 55 and missed Farmway Road, but did eventually
find our way over to Homedale Road. (There is talk of a coonskin
cap ceremonyJ) We entered Oregon on Hwy 201 and went through
Adrian. We found our way to Owyhee Lake Road that winds along
the Owyhee River. We made the pit stop along the river where
Barbara treated us to cookies, grapes and water. Harvey &
Berniece Easton caught up with us while we were parked up.
We continued up river to Owyhee Lake Park with a brief stop
at the tunnel for a photo op. At the park we parked, visited
and ate more cookies. Then we headed back down the river to
lunch in Parma. The Bistro had yummy sandwiches and salads
for us to enjoy. From here we each went our own way home
