The cadre of black ATF Yukons was spread under a pair of white pines overlooking the wide, rushing Salmon River. The river was also referred to as the River of No Return. Most locals didn't know the story behind the alternate moniker, but names were a peculiar thing in Idaho. Back in the 1800's, when Congress was considering making it a state, a lobbyist named George Willing suggested the Indian name Idaho. It stuck but it was later discovered that the name was a prank by Mr. Willing. The word "Idaho" had no meaning. Mr Willing, however, sealed his place in history by providing the only state name that meant absolutely nothing.

just a little background first....daughter slipped out to see a guy the parents don't know about before calling her dad's cell to come pick her up.....

"Daddy?"

"Yes."

"I'm scared."

"Don't be Pumpkin. I'll give you a pass on this one."

"No, it's not that."

"What then?"

"The ocean's in the yard and it's like washing over the street."
