🌿 Did You Know, Coeur d’Alene? Indigenous Peoples’ Day — October 12

Before the city. Before the highways. The lakes, rivers, and forests here have long been places where Indigenous peoples gathered, traveled, and shared their stories.

The Coeur d’Alene Tribe, the Schitsu’umsh — “Those who were found here” — has called this place home for thousands of years. Their stories live on through language, song, dance, and traditions passed down through generations.

Today, we honor the Coeur d’Alene Tribe and celebrate the living culture and heritage that are part of the place we call home.

Sometimes, a little history helps us see our hometown differently. 🧡

🐪 A tradition of care that connects us all — Mongolia’s UNESCO-recognized camel coaxing ritual

On the Mongolian steppe, a mother camel may turn away from her newborn calf, refusing to let her baby nurse. But herders don’t give up. Through gentle singing, music, and care, they work to bring them back together. 🎶

Thousands of miles apart, we are connected by shared values: family, community, compassion, and care for the living world around us. 🧡

🧡 30 years of cooking. Thousands of bowls. Two legendary griddles still going strong!

Keeping our cast-iron griddles spotless takes time, care, and a lot of lemon juice every day. It’s just part of keeping those hardworking grills ready for you, day after day. 🍋 🍋 🍋

🌿 Did You Know, Coeur d’Alene? ❄️ The Coeur d’Alene landscape has a remarkable story—one that goes back roughly 15,000 years to the last Ice Age.

Long before we were hiking Tubbs Hill, cruising Lake Coeur d’Alene, glaciers and repeated catastrophic floods from Glacial Lake Missoula were shaping Coeur d’Alene and the Inland Northwest.

🌊 Here’s the interesting part: Floodwaters may have reached 450 feet deep in places and raced across the region at up to 100 miles per hour. Those forces helped shape the valleys, lakes, and terrain we enjoy today.

So when you look across Lake Coeur d’Alene, you’re seeing more than a beautiful view—you’re seeing a landscape shaped by the powerful forces of the Ice Age. 🌲 ❄️
