Zippity do da...

It's been a lovely day here in the Spokane countryside. Words like serene, relaxing and blissful have been running through my mind.  Our longest drive (our only drive) was into town for hamburgers at Zips. Really quite tasty. Our great niece, 13, and greatnephew, 10, are joining us this evening so it's almost game time.

A view from our hike up the hill this moning. 

A view from their farm looking off to the distance. The quiet is only disturbed by clucking chickens and bleating goats. 

The scene going down their driveway. They own five acres, but vast fields, and  very few neighbors surround them.
