Cox Reunion 2010

This year we had Lance's family reunion at Allison's house in Kuna. It was a lot of fun and good food! Most everyone slept outside in tents but I opted to sleep inside to get as much sleep as possible. We went to the state penitentiary which is no longer used, and the discovery center. We visited late into the morning, played games, took naps, and had a great time being together. This first picture is Lance and I on the little pulley operated chair at the Discovery Center where you pull your own weight to be raised to the top. The following pictures are from the old jail.


This is a picture of the womens ward at the penitentiary which as you can see the women were treated much better than the men. This is inside of a cell, not sure what the white curtain is for.
This is the gallows where the first hanging in Idaho took place.




Comfy toilet seat.
This was the solitary confinement cells where below you can see calendars and different etchings into the wall.


This was the dining hall that burned down.
