Mount Spokane

After perhaps too much red wine the night before, Heather (resting here with Smalls and Nugget) and I hiked Mt. Spokane. We went at 9am and left at 4pm. We had a nice picnic lunch on top at Vista house some Huckleberries in the middle and later that night had an excellent Vietnamese dinner. While we were on the mountain we heard a powerful story of the Spokane people told by Barry Moses from the Spokane tribe then he sang an amazing blessing and prayer accompanied only by a rattle. After that, the Venerable Geshe Thupten Phelgye gave a blessing and said prayers as well. What a beautiful / wonderful day.
