Spokane (time to open the lake cabin)

Once again headed of to Spokane. Our mission this trip is to head up to Diamond lake and open up the cabin for the summer.

Here is an ongoing slideshow of this adventure. Stay Tuned

Day I: Headed out. It’s 5am or so and I am relaxing on the deck enjoying the birds flitting around and the ocasional fish going after a bug or something. It sure does not get much better than this. It’s 65degrees and no wind. Shortly I will be driven off the deck as the sun breaks the horizon and I will no longer be able to view my laptop screen. Until then this is the best! This almost makes me think we are heading east this morning. But I am sure it is going to be uncomfortably hot and the lake will loose it’s peacefulness as the day wares on.
Had a great ride over. We could not believe the level of lake Kachees and how high and swift the Yakima river was flowing along the way.

Day II:
Opening the cabin. It’s now 8:30 and we are driving up to the lake. I am reporting live from the back seat of the car with my computer connected to the internet via the cell phone. Life is so good now.

Back from the Lake. They now have hot and cold running water. That climbing under the cabin is not my idea of a walk in the park. So far on my Mary list I have

Hooked up the new TV boxes.
Taken off the glass screen to the fireplace.
Turned on the water at the lake cabin.
To DO:
   Install a curtain rod in her bedroom

The weather is perfect around 85 the Lake was a little chilly still but managed to go for a junk chillin wade

Day III:
Mission Accomplished!!
All the chores have been completed with minimal distress. The day was topped off by a visit from Karen and Trejaen. and some playing in the yard

Day IV:
Looks like today we will be headed west. As it stands now we will pay a visit to Sowder Farms B&B. Again it is once again a killer day! Sun is out and all is quiet here at Chez Frey. More to come
Made it to Sowder Farms in time for a GREAT burger BBQ by chef Larry and some of Jane’s outrageous tater salad.

Day V: It’s Sunday morning and Jane and I are messing with our computers. Everyone else is stiill sacked out including the dogs. Rosy did get up to join me for my first cup of the day and a stroll in the pasture.
  We should be headed home this morning. Had a  great leisurely drive home thru the canyon then took a side trip to Roslyn (location for Northern Exposure ) along with a couple other stops. Another great adventure and looking forward to the next!!
