Moses Lake, WA, and Sandpoint, ID

After days and days of cool weather, when we got to Moses Lake, on the other side of the Cascades, it was warm----really, really, really warm and we got to take a dip in the pool (first time in lots and lots of days). It wasn't the largest pool but it was well kept and the water was DELIGHTFUL!!!
Our view of Moses Lake from our front door.
These were growing at the edge of Moses Lake. The other 2 pictures were flowers in the pool area.


This is the Sprague River viewed from the edge of a rest stop.
We stopped at a rest stop on our way to Coeur d'Alene and I tried to get a picture of these guys (if you look really close through the slats, you can see there ears). They were riding with an official "COWBOY" according to the sticker on his truck window.
I bet this Sandpoint watering hole hops in the evenings.
I never get tired of the beautiful flowers these folks grow in the cities, in pots, in baskets, in mounds....they are gorgeous!

As we were leaving Sandpoint, I wanted a shot of the Lake Pend Orelle but there was no place to pull over so I took this picture through the window of the truck going about 50+ miles per hour. The water was unbelievable. Tomorrow the Happy Travelers journey on to Missoula, Montana....Yellowstone, here we come. So more later.

  1. There are lots of cowboys in big sky country!

    Love the beautiful flowers and lakes.

    I'm expecting pictures of bears, moose, and elk pretty soon.
