Camas Prairie Railroad Part 1

The Camas Prairie Railroad from Grangeville to Ferdinand Idaho.

Peace And Quiet
I imagine that it was quite a racket when the trains passed over the trestle behind this old farmhouse. The tracks are now abandoned, but so is the house....

Canola fields provide such a vivid contrast to the green grasses on the prairie.

Wild Camas Flowers
The flowers that our prairie gets its name from. The Native Americans used to dig the bulbs for food. Now, we mostly just enjoy the beauty, but I did try some of them cooked. They were ok, but I am not sure they are worth the effort.

Look Into My Eyes
Wow, what a set of eyes on this little guy. It was sitting next to the track on the other side of a trestle and really didn't mind me too much. When I got up next to it, it took off.
