"The Lower Refugee"

Once I left McCall, it took almost another whole day to get to Basin because I drove on two-lane back roads.

I saw jaw-dropping canyons formed by the Salmon River through the Grand View Canyon.

This interesting sign on the Payette River was trying to entice me into joining a cause.  But I was confused.  Should I repent, or just pick up litter?

I listened to some great radio, including KZID out of McCall and/or Orofino, and a program on pipe organs from some unidentified public radio affiliate.

I crossed into Montana at the Chief Joseph Pass and drove into Butte.

I could see the Berkley Pit in the distance, and it made me anxious to get to Basin.

I arrived in Basin.

Basin is smack-dab in the middle of mining country, and one hundred years ago was an active mining town.

The Hewitt Building is on the left, and was originally a bank.

I had the apartment and studio ~ the entire  ground floor.
