Time to catch up a little on the blog. We left Bend, Oregon and spent the night in Pasco, Washington and then off to Coeur d'Alene Idaho.
We drove to St Maries some 50 miles South of Coeur D'Alene to see Sharleen's nieces. Here Madeline is showing off her horse with Gerry standing by.
Four generations on the couch. This was a special treat and thanks Ananda for a great dinner
Ken and Helen showed us Spokane since they were from this area. We had lunch at the Davenport Hotel in downtown. What a great old hotel. It's been refurbished and reopened in 2002.
Sunday we hiked Tubbs hill in Coeur d'Alene as we have done before. We never tire of the view and the hike is fun.
Monday it was off to Quincy, Washington to visit cousins. Dinner was at Cresent Bar on the Columbia River with the entire Quincy gang. Thanks to Arnie and Ginny for hosting the evening.
Wednesday we drove to Port Angles on the Olympic Peninsula to visit Kris. Thursday we hiked to Marymere falls in Olympic National Park and Friday was a beach hike near Sequim.
Saturday we spent the day with Kris touring the area. We headed to port Townsend and visited Fort Worden a WW2 vintage fort on the Strait of Juan de Fuca. The lighthouse at the end is no longer in use but has been preserved by Washington State.
We finished the day in Port Angles just walking around town and looking for Pokémon critters. Dinner at the Nextdoor Gastropub was a treat then home for some sleep. Great to have a visit with Kris. Today we hiked some of the Olympic discovery trail and this afternoon is rest. Tomorrow it's off to the beach at Westport, Washington West of Tacoma. Then it's down the coast toward home. I hope to do one more post before we get home but no promises.
