Eastern WA, looking along the Spokane River towards Idaho. We are actually in a drought; we've just had a lot of rain lately. It will brown up soon enough. Spring is like this around here.

Devil's Gulch Memorial Day weekend
Irulan,
Beautiful pictures . . . I wish I could take nice pics like these.
Hubby and I will be joining 8 other friends and riding in the Leavenworth area Memorial Day weekend. We'll do Devil's Gulch on Saturday and Freund Canyon on Sunday.
Can't wait!

Forgot to mention this . . . our son goes to EWU in Cheney. Joe and I were thinking about mountain biking over there is fall when we take him back to his dorm in September. Any suggestions for good places to ride? Thanks!

the beauty of digital is that you can just delete the crappy ones.

Lots of nice stuff right in town. This ride is one of the local in town loops. Nothing like devils gulch but it's plenty nice.

Irulan, thanks for the photos!!! This may sound silly, but looking at them, I could smell the mountain air!! I almost teared up, they made me pine for my mountain home, though it's still snowing/cold there in Colorado.
I lived in Bellingham/Skagit region for 5 years. Spent halves of 4 years working at Ross Lake Resort on Hwy. 20.

Irulan,
Forgot to mention that your photos remind me of Missoula, Montana. Joe and I went to Missoula last summer to visit his family and we rode at Rattle Snake Recreation (state park) and it looks very very similar. Nice smooth winding trails and the smell of ponderosa pines ..... mmmmmm heaven. I told Joe we need to ride there again when we go home to visit his family. Just beautiful! And I will bring a camera next time.

Fixed: Loved your "state"!
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"
