It's Monday and that finds us in Spokane.
We started the day by visiting the Cemetery where Sharleen's grand parents are buried. It turned out to be a disappointment since, as can be seen in the picture, the cemetery is in a sad state of disrepair and we couldn't find the grave markers for either of them. It would be a pretty place if not for the weeds and lack of lawn and flowers.

After leaving the Cemetery we drove to downtown Spokane and had a delightful time walking the river front. The Spokane river runs through downtown Spokane and includes a falls with a power generating plant. The picture at the left was taken a short walk from Nordstroms' department store!
The River front park meanders along the Spokane river and provides a beautiful and tranquil area for those folks working, living or just visiting downtown. It was truly quiet there on a Monday morning in July.
While walking in the park we came across the biggest Radio Flyer wagon I have ever seen. Look closely and you can see the children standing beside the wheel. The Tongue is a slide and the stairs are at the back. I really wanted to go up and give it a try but my better half told me to act my age and not embarrass her for once.
What do you think Ella? Pretty cool, huh?
Off to George, Washington tomorrow morning to visit a cousin and her family. More of this later in the week.

That wagon looks really fun. I wish I could try the slide!
