LAKE COUER D'ALENE

Finally summer! We have had rain and cloudy weather all the way until here. The sun is beautiful here in Couer d’Alene and it is a lovely town. From our front window we can see water, a pond and a huge osprey nest on top of a telephone pole. The mamma bird is busy feeding her two babies.

We took a drive around the lake on Sunday. The lake is 25 miles long and has over 135 miles of shoreline and is an average of 120 feet deep. We stopped at a deli on the way and had sandwiches for a leisurely Sunday drive. After the drive, we went for cruise on the lake. What a great place to live! I wouldn’t want the snow and ice in the winter though.

We’ve had a good rest for four days here but are off next to Seattle for three weeks. We will stop overnight on the way at Ellensburg.
