North Idaho Kids - Stepping back to a good place

I have such a good time at the Rotary Booth in Bonners Ferry for the Boundary County Fair.  It is just a matter of sitting on a saw horse and shooting a bean bag at holes in a painted farm mural.  Kind of a sling shot affair.  These two brothers look to have stepped back in time.  They portray the excitement and awe of what life was like without phones, ipads, technology.  I have always been happy I was able to catch this moment as one brother looks on just as the other has taken aim and released his best effort.  Experience the change of pace Living In North Idaho will make.  Contact me for your local North Idaho Real Estate Resource.

I am entering this in November Photo Contest for Real Life - People

Good morning Mark.  I think this is a great photo of some young boys enjoying themselves at the fair.

The age of innocence indeed when a play day is one spent outdoors building a fort, or just exploring the woods. Great shot, Mark Don McInnes, Sandpoint !

Mark, our childhood days were great and glad to see young boys enjoying what we had. Fairs are fun and always enjoyed by the kids.

It's a story like this that inspired some of the greatest people of all time, like Norman Rockwall. You have that gift, Mark Don McInnes, Sandpoint

Mark, they look so happy and it's very telling that there's nothing like good old fashioned fun. Some of my best memories are running around the small farm I grew up on, drinking out of a garden hose and climbing trees.

There's a family that doesn't live far from me. Their kids spend a lot of time playing outside. It's so refreshing to see that happening these days. I remember one rainy day when the kids put on boots, took umbrellas and went out and splashed in puddles. I almost joined them.

The brothers are enjoying the event . . . . Looks like they left their cel-phones at home.

Good luck and success.
