A Walk Above the West Shore of Medical Lake

September 19, 2011 -- A walk along the path on the west side of Medical Lake, Washington. About the turn of the century before last Medical Lake was a favorite recreation lake for swimming, fishing, skating and ice fishing. It is still good for such pleasures but the recreation areas providing access have changed to locations on the north and south shores.

A Northern Palouse Hill

Late June in the northern part of the Palouse. A hillside in pasture, a field in summer fallow, and spring wheat in a field below. Beautiful.

Milk Cow Barn, Eastern State Hosp. Washington

Cattle use the pasture but the barn, where decades ago the cows which provided milk to Eastern State Hospital were once milked twice a day, is no longer in use -- for anything. Someday, it will be restored. Maybe, it will be used again for milk cows and the production of milk. This would be a good and simple use of capital and would provide good and rewarding work for many.
