A Tree Stump with Stories: Little Free Library in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho 🌲📚

On my travels through Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, I stumbled upon one of the most whimsical roadside gems I’ve ever seen—a Little Free Library built right into a tree stump! 🌟 This creative community library invites visitors to take a book, leave a book, and celebrate the simple joy of reading in the most magical way possible.

It’s not just a quirky roadside attraction—it’s also a reminder of how sharing books connects people everywhere, from small towns in Idaho to cities across the globe.

Hey friends! Ash here from Life on Paws and Wheels, bringing you another pawsome adventure from the road. This time, Simba (my golden retriever and trail-loving sidekick) and I tackled the Cat Gap Trail to John Rock Loop in beautiful Brevard, North Carolina — a challenging but totally rewarding hike in the heart of Pisgah National Forest.
