Jim, Dave, Madie and Joan enjoyed themselves, as did I. Dave and Joan will soon leave us to spend winter with their daughter Chanelle and granddaughter in Hawaii. Madie is heading off to the coast to join her family and attend college. We'll be alone again. <sigh> But for now, we're cherishing our time together.
After an hour and a half, viewing the lake, the river, osprey families still nesting, a model plane buzzing around the river, skiers, tubers, kayakers, boarders and fishermen, empty coal trains headed north and full coal trains headed south, a float plane coming in - a typical Sunday afternoon at the lake - we headed back into port at Sandpoint Beach.
And stopped at Dub's on the way home, for a cheeseburger, fries, and a SMALL ice cream cone. Life doesn't get any better than this.
