Saturday-August 7, 2010Today we went to the town of Salmon. A lot of history here. Enjoyed the museum. The monument of Sacajawea, the indian lady who accompanied Lewis and Clark on their expedition is in this town. The Lewis and Clark Back Coutry Byway and Adventure Road is located in this county,Lemhi County.
The monument of the dog that accompanied Lewis and Clark on their trail.
Carlye wanted to go to Salmon Cemetery to look for the grave of Jesse McCaleb. He was the only soldier who was killed by the American Indians in the town of Mackay, Idaho. There's a mountain in Mackay named after Jesse McCaleb. Carlye found the grave of Jesse McCaleb and his family.
The trip to Salmon was a good one. Enjoyed it. Learning a lot of Idaho history.The only thing about this trip that wasn't good was Earl lost his necklace. No big deal it can be replaced.
