Slow Going On SH97, The Eagles Are Back

The eagles are back on Lake Coeur d'Alene, which means that if you drive over to see them, you need to be extra careful on State Highway 97, the road that goes around the lake. When I've been over there in past years it's a mob scene of people stopped in the middle of the road, parked with cars halfway in the roadway, and people running back and forth across the highway, darting between cars. SH97 is already a scary stretch of road, so slow down and pay attention, and don't be one of those people who do any of the above.

Thanks to the Spokesman's Huckleberries blog for the eagle picture, by the way.
