Schweitzer

There is not much I can write that these photos do not say by themselves, but they capture some of the majesty around Sandpoint. The first set is from the top of Schweitzer Mountain. To open the summer season, a big festival on Schweitzer is marked with vendors, games, food, and free ski lifts to the top. The second set of photos is from Independence Day with great friends on Lake Pend Oreille. 




The long bridge over the water and into Sandpoint is right center just past the initial set of mountains.




The surprisingly large village at Schweitzer is at the bottom of the ski lift in these photos.




This one is shot at an out-of-the-way lake about 20 miles north of Sandpoint. Ed and Paula drove us there to show off one of their favorite fishing spots and getaways.

The Lewis family had about 100 people gathered on their lakeside lawn for Independence Day and a homespun fireworks show that outdid the city-sponsored event.





Thanks to my two brothers and all our military veterans that have afforded us the freedom to live in the United States and worship freely. We are grateful for your service.
