Empty Airports and Very Old Trees....

Here I am! Back and in the Cd'A Library- a HUGE and beautiful building dedicated to all the readers here in town. It truly is breathtaking! Check it out! Cd'A Library

Speaking of empty airports, we flew into Spokane and it was like a ghost town...no one in site, all the stores closed up, food court seemed open but the custodian was mopping the floor and putting the chairs up on the tables....and it was only 4:30pm! Maybe because it was 4th of July?














Beautiful view outside the airport windows! That is (I think) a river...?












Thank goodness for these wonderful WiFi seats!
The kids had three hours to wait for the next plane and they played their games in their own area.










The ride from Spokane Airport to Coeur d'Alene is so pretty...and I love glimpsing at the surroundings, like this old bridge and the river underneath...











Have you ever been to a Cabela's? It is a hunting/fishing/boating/camping/etc. store that is just fun to shop in....BUT THIS STORE...is the HUGEST CABELA'S I've ever seen!
It is inbetween Spokane and Coeur d'Alene...you really cant miss it!
Post Falls, ID to be more exact...and you could easily spend the day in there! You GOTTA go check it out if you come this way!





Looking at some of the old downtown Spokane buildings....reminds me of Pittsburg. Love old brinck buildings and especially ones that are vacant with old peeling billboards painted on the sides of them.










Ancient churches with old-fashioned steeples are just my cup of tea!













Here is another great example....check out the stained glass right in the front...I'd love to see that from the inside!











Looks like we have arrived in Coeur d'Alene!!!

Let me get settled in and unpacked, grab some tea and Ill be back with great things to do around town!
