Hello again from the north country......

Taking a break from a little hike we took this morning. Pretty cool air show shots
Forest 1 and the Turkey Vulture is cool too
Calindy...they are all cool shots and always a treat coming in here and seeing them all.

Anyhoots....here's a few shots of our hike. It's great that we don't have to go very far around here, plus we always have the trails to ourselves....ok...we might run into the occasional neighbor out getting firewood or a neighbor out grouse or mushroom hunting, but very seldom.
Our goal, to an old slash pile via an old logging road. This mountain had a nasty little fire a year before we moved here. It's still pretty and fun watching it grow back little by little. I always sit and watch the elk and moose roam the hill side.

Two hours later.....we made our goal. It wasn't quite the top, but the view was still breath taking. You can barely make out the Upper Columbia River and the town of Northport sitting along it's banks.

Our place is there somewhere.

This shot shows our roof a little better......I think...(squinting a little).

Home sweet home. And man....I was glad to get back down. I swear it was raining ticks up there. I'll be itching all the rest of the day and into the night.

Well, time to grab something cold to drink and head down to the fishing hole.
Hope everyone is doing great and keep on keepin' on.........
