Family and Friends - Bozeman, Kalispell, Post Falls and Spokane

We get to spend quite a bit of time with family and friends in September.
First stop is Bozeman, where we visit with my sister Ann and her black lab Tex. We enjoy watching the Republican convention with her, especially when Sarah Palin speaks.
From here we head to Flathead Lake and then are lucky enough to find old friends and former neighbors Bonnie, Rob and Guthrie Quist outside Kalispell. When we leave their place on September 11th, two firemen in full gear hold an American flag at a small fire station alongside the road.


We go to Glacier, then drop down on to Coeur D'Alene Lake and visit good friends and former neighbors Mark, Jeanine, Kali and Nicoya Wilson in Post Falls. The Coeur D'Alene boat show is on during our stay - they also have some classic cars on display.





We wrap up the September family and friends tour visiting Joan's friend from way back, Francie and her husband Tom. Francie teaches us some basic Svaroopa yoga, Joan helps her re-upholster chairs and I get bit by yellow jackets working on the truck. This visit proves especially helpful - during September Joan had many migraines. The yoga Francie teaches, the tumeric (anti-inflamatory) they bought in Spokane and the healing waters of Sun Meadow broke Joan's headache cycle. Thank you Francie!
