August 30, 2010 ~ FAMILY FUN in NE WASHINGTON

It’s hard to believe fall is already approaching here in the Northwest. Nights and mornings are getting very cool and the hot days of summer have given way to picture perfect afternoons with lots of sunny blue skies, puffy clouds and perfect temperatures. We’ve worked very hard this summer and although it’s been a very tough real estate market, we’ve managed to make a few sales the last few weeks.
July was a fun family month. We enjoyed a visit from Mindy near the beginning of the month, and Jason and Scott came at the end. Our friends Roger & Betty let us borrow their canoe (thanks, guys!), and we had fun paddling on the river. We took a day drive with Mindy through Idaho and into Montana; walked through the Cedars, stopped at Kootenai Falls and the Swinging Bridge, and had a couple beers in Sandpoint. Check out the "Mindy’s WA Visit " album. Jason and Scott stopped for a short visit on their way to Montana to hike and camp in the back country. They canoed at dusk on the peaceful Pend Oreille and had a good time fishing for Northern Pike. Take a look at the photos in the "Jason-Scott WA Visit " album.
Well, that’s about it for now, but stop back for some final images from our summer stay here in Usk.
