It's Snow Fun!!!

On Friday, December 26, 2008, Mike and I drove to Frenchtown, MT to pickup RaeLynn, Josh and Caite. On the way there, I took some pictures of the snow around Lake Couer d'Alene and through Look Out Pass. The snow fall was not as much as we got, here in "Sno"kane, but it was just as beautiful, as Montana always is......As of tonight, we have had 59 inches of snow in 2 weeks. That is 4 feet, 11 inches--taller than Caite!!!

Here are low lying clouds over Lake Couer d'Alene

Elmer's Fountain near Mullan, Idaho
This is Kellogg, Idaho, you can see the line going up the mountain, that is the Gondola ride up to the top of the mountain. You can either ski down, hike down or ride your bikes down.


This is the Clark's Fork River in Montana
The first blue sky we had seen in over a week and it was in Montana!

The mountains are doing "pfft". The snow is falling off the trees and making the "pfft" of snow, a smoke-like look. RaeLynn all smiles
Josh and Caite found some icicles!
