We fell in love with Sandpoint, Idaho. We spent three weeks there in August of 2014. It is located on the shores of beautiful Lake Pend Oreille and the folks who live there are absolutely the friendliest, most welcoming, helpful people we’ve met anywhere on our Adventure. They love living there…their happiness just exudes. There is lots to do and see in this quaint town in northern Idaho. We’re considering it as a place to live after we conclude our Great American Adventure. I just wonder if we could handle the winters…
