Red Lion Hotel At The Park - Spokane

... br> Leaving Saturday for L.A. where I'll meet up with Terry Chamorro and stay at her place Saturday night. Sunday morning we have a 7:45am flight out of LAX which means going to the airport at 5:45am. Ungodly time. We are flying on Mexicana Airlines via Mexico City to Guatemala City. <br>Not exactly sure yet where we'll meet up with Rose and Jim....probably at LAX before the flight.<br><br><br>

Finally got the truck back, all fixed and running beautifully. Decided to get on the road, though it was already 2 pm. Headed south along Flathead Lake through green forests and valleys to I-90, then west, west, west. All uphill, what a climb, to Coeur d'Alene in Idaho, then downhill into Washington State. Spent almost two hours trying to find Riverside State Park in the city of Spokane, finally set up the camper and tried to settle down for the night.

... most of the UK are patriotic but I could not imagine the response in the crowd if we were all asked to sing  &#8220;god save the queen&#8221; every time One Man and his dog started.  <br><br>Unfortunately we were unable to stay for the Tom Addis Dodge PRCA Rodeo or the Rhinestone Roper or watch the Canine Demo let alone the Cabela&#8217;s Dutch Oven Cook-Off (heaven knows what that is about). Another recommendation - stop by if you see any state fairs, especially for the rodeos. 

The rest of the week followed the same formula except that we were riding in the adult trek in the morning.  In the afternoon you could ride again or indulge in another activity, shooting, kayaking, archery, fly-fishing.  Ian, Steve, Tim and Robert took a day out and went to Coeur d'Alene golf course (Ian to write on this) and another day left early to go fly-fishing The kids programme was also full with another afternoon on a river boat and swimming in a ...

The golf trip was organised by Steve and I was looking forward to a decent round of golf at a local course to see if my game could recover from the disastrous run I'd been having in England. So four of us (Tim, Rob, Steve and I) set off at lunchtime in Jim&#8217;s hire car to drive the supposed 45-minute route around the lake with Tim driving. Tim normally drives an Aston ...

... en gländewage ;o) am bowman lake acho, hämm** eus wand**tüchtig gmacht und sind loszoge, in wald ine und em see nah.

... our fellow guests and identified that one family (the RV drivers) were from the UK "where from" (always the first question) &#8220;London&#8221; &#8220;oh where&#8221; (second question if familiar or connected to London), &#8220;Wandsworth&#8221; &#8220;never, where do you live&#8221;  and then we find out that we are with Tim and Elizabeth Green who used to live on Frewin Road and whose children went to Finton House.  They were here with Elizabeth's mother ...

... midweight fleece pants, jeans, and rainpants on legs, thick wool socks, ice bags lent by the sisters as vapor barriers, boots, and gaiters on feet, mountaineering gloves on hands. Balaclava, rain jacket hood (intercepts and deflects most of the airflow up the back of my leather jacket) and full face helmet on head. I look pretty portly. Double check the lashings, and on the move. I wish I had stopped to take pictures, but I felt the ...

... became bearable again and with the rain beginning to clear, we found that we were surrounded by tremendous natural beauty - lots of sweeping mountains with ************e about. After Montana, where we drove up lofty mountains, we took a plunge down the other side, into Idaho. On the way down we again faced an equal array of natural beauty with canyons filled with water. We shot ...
