A Weekend in Idaho and Washington

I had a wonderful weekend in Idaho and Washington!!

Dogwood flowers everywhere

they were

absolutely fabulous!!!!

A little bit of flower 

heaven for 

an Alaskan!

Wonderful shades of pink and white!

I'm not sure if these blossoms are cherries or

apples, but these fluffy

flowers

were marvelous!

On our trip we saw elks, deers, and a coyote!

Thank goodness I didn't see

any rattlesnakes at this rest stop.

I did see a wonderful little lizard

that quickly found refuge beneath a rock.

   

We also saw at least two wind farms.

And some beautiful yellow flowers in the dry

highlands.

Great views and good weather made 

for a wonderful weekend.

When we arrived back in Anchorage we saw a 

 red fox run across the road

as we were driving away from the airport.

We think he was out hunting the Canadian geese that 

are starting to rest in the ponds next to

the road.

I did bring home two little treasures...

I made one antique stop 

in a tiny town 

and picked up this sweet swan doorstop for

ten dollars!!

And the shop owner 

gave me this

little cream

container as a gift.

I love it...it will always

remind me of her

and my great weekend in Washington and Idaho!!
