As some of you know I took yesterday off and went on an outing with my son-in-law. He and my daughter and have small weekend get away place north of where we live, in the state of Washington. Here is 2 photos from their shared dock overlooking the Pend Oreille river. I found this on line in Collins dictionary:
Fr pend(re), to hang + oreille, ear: name given by the Fr to local Salishan Indians who wore ear pendants
Now for the photos (these are from two different directions:
We went through part of the Kalispel Indian reservation. As you will see there was a field of buffalo that I was able to get one decent photograph. Next trip I want to have my zoom lens figured out better for closeups: ( found the following in definition of Kalispel in Wikipedia)
PBS - THE BUFFALO WAR: The Buffalo
We also stopped at the following:
Many of the photos from inside the cave did not come out as well as I would have liked but I picked out a nice sampling:
Here is a ceremonial table carved out of rock inside the cave:
Looking out:
The next few are some of the rock formations just outside the cave:
To close out this post I found the following wildflower growing just outside the cave:
This short trip was just what I needed in recovering from my exhaustion. I wanted to share some of the trip with you. Thank you for viewing.

Did you manage to boat there or just enjoyed the atmosphere?
The buffaloes are in number and grazing well!
The stones are strange but looks nice. Finally the flower is fantastic! Thank you for sharing your visit with us!
No we did not boat there. My daughter and son-in-law have a pontoon boat and will have it in the water for the summer. I am looking forward to some fishing and more sightseeing. Thank you for visiting my blog.
whats the name this flowers?
Welcome to my blog @sony1992. I am not sure what the name of this flower is. It is a wildflower, but this was the first time I have seen it, or paid attention to it.
Beautiful nature photography sir @r2cornell
I love this view. So serine!
Thank u sir,in fact, our country has many rivers. And Bangladesh is known as the country of fullygreen. You can once come to travel at our country.
There are many natural beauties at our country.
From the photos of Bangladesh it is a very beautiful country.
The photos are so amazing I just saw a picture like this that very ugood thanks have shared @r2cornell
Thank you for visiting my blog.
That ceremonial table... Is that graffiti along the sides? Seems like a fun gathering spot. I wonder what kind of events were held there... Interesting rock formations also.
Unfortunately yes that is graffiti. There was some on walls too. Was not able to see any of the originally drawings by the Native Americans. It would have been nice to see before humans started damaging it with their own carvings and graffiti.
This is most beautiful photography
thanks
Thank you!
It's nice to have a trip with loved ones admiring nature.
Your pictures look great, never seen such many buffalos 🐃 in one photo.
Was curious to see a photo of you, your daughter and her husband though.
Thank you. We will work on photos of everyone...maybe our next excursion

very beautiful and relaxing sea side view. Awesome photography of rocks inside the cave.
Thank you. Actually that is a very large river. Some places it is very deep. Hoping to get out on a boat this summer and do some fishing. Been thinking of taking some extra lighting to get better and more photos inside the cave.
that's really cool idea for fishing.
