Fall in Coeur d'Alene

We're in the Pacific Northwest again as we are every fall and as usual it's a great time.


Lake Coeur d'Alene is spectacular; set in pine covered hills and clear and cool.
We took a 90 minute boat ride on the lake on a warm and breezy day that was as good as it gets here.



Since friend Gail wasn't here this year I had to fill in on the fun stuff. Here I comfort a moose that just missed Gail. We took a three mile hike around Tubbs hill near downtown Coeur d'Alene. The trail started just behind us and went around the hill along the lake shore.
We met the newest arrival to Sharleen's family. Madeline is just a year old and just as cute as they come.

How can you not want to just hug Madeline?

Mom and Madeline... what a pair!


And... grandpa Jerry with the cowgirl.

We're off to Spokane today and dinner with cousins (my side). More down the road..... I'm being lazy on this trip but will try to do a little blogging along the way.
