Lake Coeur d’Alene

Posted byTrail RockerPosted inUncategorized

Last week Barbara and I joined several people from the Grand Design Idaho Rally onboard a cruise ship tour of Lake Coeur d’Alene. In my opinion this is one of the most beautiful lakes in North America. Whenever I take this cruise, it reminds me of years ago when I was working in Billings Montana, the company I worked for then would two times a year have all the managers get together for a manager meeting on a cruise ship on Lake Coeur d’Alene. We wouldn’t get a lot of work done, but we all had a good time.

I always enjoy this cruise no matter who I’m with. On this day the sky was clear, no wind and the afternoon temperature was a perfect 70 degrees. I found myself a couple of times closing my eyes while listening to the water splash against the front of the boat. It was extremely relaxing. However, I didn’t keep them closed for long as I didn’t want to miss anything. As usual I took photos. Take a look!
