Left Canada yesterday after we sadly concluded that it wasn’t
wise to push Elbee up the mountains any further.
-
Goodbye Rocky Mountains.
-
We came back into the States very quickly after we had made
our decision. At the border we had to be “examined by an
agricultural officer. She took away all meet and tropical fruit.
Mangoes and Avocadoes I had bought in Canada for Sushi making
purposes…really annoying.
-
We went as far as Omak, WA a good forsaken place. It’s major
business district was made up of a Walmart. It desolate ambiance was
alleviated only slightly by the beautiful mountain ranges in the
distance.
-
I actually went in to look for some things. On the way from
Elbee to the store I caught a bright orange sunset, and lingered
between the cars to watch it set over the Walmart Mountains.
-
We left Omak this morning, NPR talking about 9/11, on route
to Spokane, Washington States 2nd largest City.
-
From Omak we drove on toward the Grand Coulee Dam on the way
to Spokane.
-
It is a quite impressive structure, except the weirdest part
is that it is only used for peek needs…tell me that doesn’t have
anything to do with political payoff…………………..

We had a little picnic after a tour of one of the turbine
plants. I had prepared everything for a little walk to a nice
area…we ended up in front of Elbee on a little patch of grass near
the Dam. It was nice until a swarm of bees decided we were a good
destination for their family picnic…
