Re: Owyhee Reservoir or Garden Valley

Nampa’s restaurant is open for business. I agree it is the better choice.

Owyhee Reservoir or Garden Valley

Looks nice. Apparently my folks are bringing lasagna, salad and dessert this evening so we won’t starve. Daughter #2 surprised me and said she wanted to come as well. Still tracking to be there around 6 tonight.

Done any fishing there? Might pack a fly pole. Let me know if you guys need anything from the valley.

I just got home. Great trip. I think this may be an annual trip for me. First or second weekend of May based on weather.

Re: Owyhee Reservoir or Garden Valley

I’m glad you guys did this and had a good time. I tried to get out of work on Friday so I could join but no joy. I’ll be out and about in the morning if you’re around Rob.

Re: Owyhee Reservoir or Garden Valley

Dang I wish I would've seen this sooner, I was there on Saturday morning as you guys were leaving. Rob, I was in the white 172 that came in just as you were leaving. I said hi not knowing it was you :lol:

Until next time!
