Great Tour of Area

Before getting into the great day we had yesterday with Kristine and Philo, I want to share this surprise we had when we went outside yesterday AM for the first time:


We have no idea how that happened, but are thankful it didn't happen while on the road. We will take care of that this morning with our AAA Plus RV insurance.

We met Kristine and Philo at their house in Marcus at around 11 AM to take a drive around the area. We mentioned that we would possibly be interested in obtaining a lot (5-20 acres) where we could place our RV for the summer months. We saw some terrific properties and were awed by the beauty of the area. These are some shots we took of the day. Starting with this one of the Columbia River that splits this area of Washington:


And these of a stop along the way:





We also saw these whitetail deer along the side of the road at one point:


We stopped for lunch at a neat Bar and Grill in Northport before heading back home.

The net of the drive was that there are many possibilities in the area and it remains an excellent option for us. It is close to Kettle Falls and Colville, and only about 70 miles from Spokane. I also got a chance to drive by my old friend Burt Nokes' place where I hunted many years ago. Of course, he is no longer there, but the home and barn are still there and it was nice to bring back those memories. I forgot to take pictures of that stop but hope to go back again before we leave.

Today's agenda includes the tire repair before anything else is done, so it appears that this day is set aside for less pleasant activities...
