This morning I went looking for Grizzly bears. WSU has a conservation project which involves the study of Grizzlies, misplaced Grizzlies from Yellowstone. Once I finished at their pens, I drove out past the Pullman - Moscow airport, and came upon three of these beasts devouring wheat, here in the Palouse

Today finds me heading over to have lunch with Diane at the CUB, she invited Tara to join us. Nice time, can't say I think very much of the food served there, thus far.
I'm crossing "Stadium Way" in a walking fly-bridge. That's the Smith Center for Undergraduate Education (CUE) on the left.

Today, I'm at home. Just arrived home, went over to Todd Hall, met Diane, then to the CUB (Compton Union Building) for a latte. Took some WSU campus shots on the way home. This is our Yakama Village townhouse, on the campus of Washington State University, which we will be calling "home" for the tenure of Diane's PhD program.

So what is life without Hummingbirds! I'm in Henry's Ace Hardware, Pullman, Washington searching for just the right feeder, one that attaches to a window. They'll be close, and the feeder will be discrete; I'm not sure Hummingbird feeders are allowed. Found a very nice one. Perhaps some day in the not too distant future, I may be able to add some photos of the hummers, so enticed.

The most beautiful of drives, Boise to Lewiston, Idaho. We stopped here, Ridley's Market to take a bit of a break, and have some refreshments. It was a wonderful day to travel through this part of Idaho. Also, just prior to our stop here, took some great photos of some Osprey, one in-flight.

Winding down on the "packing" phase of our relocation. I've moved the boxes from the cabin to the garage. It just might work! Our tracking the aggregate cubic feet of what we've packed. Tomorrow morning I bring the U-Haul trailer home, and load it. I guess we'll see how well we've done!

In the throes of packing the belongings we are taking with us to Pullman, Washington. This is the staging area in the ground level (basement) of our cabin. We are keeping track of the cubic foot of the containers as we are packing to assure they will all fit in the trailer we are renting and in our truck. Diane can't lift, Doctor's orders! A labor intensive task, to be sure!

Heading north on Peoria St near I-70 in Denver. We have just received a very favorable prognosis from Diane's Retina Specialist, her detached retina has re-attached, and we are cleared to head out to Pullman, Washington. At the moment we are headed over to Bass Pro Shop to pick-up some ammo canisters, I have some ammunition to transport, so need some additional canisters.

Today finds us preparing to move from the mountains, to the Palouse. With Diane in this photo is Chris, who came up to our cabin to prepare an estimate for his moving company to pack and store all our personal items. The sun is very intense, and they are standing inside the garage looking into the sunshine.

In 2003 we attended the Colorado State Fair in Pueblo. My first time at the Colorado State Fair. The "fair" was pretty much a bust. Not the animals and farm machinery, nor the quantity of vendor exhibits I'd become accustomed to, after many visits to the South Dakota State Fair in Huron, South Dakota. In spite of that "bust" of a fair, we came away having purchased a Jacuzzi for our cabin. This is that Jacuzzi J-350. We use it almost every day we are here at the cabin. Today however its time, well our time with it has come to an end. I'm draining it for the very last time. Kind'a sad, kind'a not... we are both pretty excited about our upcoming adventure/sojourn to the Palouse.
