Picture heavy...

I've spent the past four days at home, sick. I'll spare you the disgusting details, other than to say I went through about three weeks of toilet paper in that amount of time. So here's (probably too many) pics from my trip (thank God I didn't get sick then!). Be sure to click 'em to big 'em!


Heading through northwest MT and northern ID--some of the prettiest land in the country!


The original reason for my trip--Alison Krauss & Union Station!



Coeur d'Alene Lake - my happy place


Met up with some of my very first students. From 30 years ago.


Mt. Hood - from the north, and from the southwest


Bipolar Diva and Emmy!


Sandy - bestest bud from college!


HNTers from the old days - Audra and Addict (mother & daughter)!


Cannon Beach, OR - GOONIES!


Aberdeen, WA - monstrously tall bridge
crossing the Columbia River into Washington


The beaches from a couple of locations in Washington.
I must move next to a body of water sometime soon.


One of my former college students - Kelly.



Various parts of Washington:
Early morning misty road near Everett (excuse the windshield bugs)
Parts that look like Arizona
Leavenworth - embraced an alpine theme in town years ago
Wenatchee - at the east edge of the Cascades


I didn't get a chance to take pics of Bigfoot's home turf.
Too foggy/misty/cloudy, but damned beautiful!
The rest of Washinton is flat.
Which makes it easy for the cops to catch speeders...

Congrats if you made it this far!!
