The Sandpoint Eater: Falling into place

By Marcia Pilgeram, Reader Columnist. The author returns 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.

I’ve been missing my usual local haunts.

Alas, I’ll be home most of November and already have lots of lunch dates on the books.
