The Sandpoint Eater: Falling into place
By Marcia Pilgeram, Reader Columnist. The author is back home.
The “Sandpoint Eater” has been eating everywhere but Sandpoint lately; and, truth be told, I’ve been missing my usual local haunts. It’s been a few weeks since I’ve settled into my favorite eateries, and perched on a stool for a late-afternoon libation.
But sometimes life — and family — pulls us down the road, and that’s where a lot of my recent stories come from, too.
Last week, the road led me six hours southeast to Butte, Mont. My college-aged grandson, Zane, was having a birthday, and I wasn’t about to miss it. His cousin Alden joined me for the ride.
