D: 13-15 (Spokane to Plummer to Moscow)

SEE THE PHOTOS

D-13: All head winds coming out of Spokane and heading down into Plummer, ID. Nice to be out in the country again.

Entered the Coeur d'Alene Reservation and stayed with Jill the Anthropologist (employed by the Tribe) who told me all kinds of interesting...and some troubling...facts about life there. Thank you Jill.

D-14: Head wind continued out of Plummer. Temps were pretty mild until mid-day. Hills got to be a bit rolling. Was a little disappointed to have to deal with Moscow Mountain, which stands at nearly 5000 ft.

 View from Moscow Mountain

Climbed off my bike at a little past one, got some food, a shower, a bit of rest, and then rushed over to Bookpeople for a reading at five. Great crowd...much like that in Northampton.

At Bookpeople

D-15: Laying low in Moscow with Mary Jo and Joel. Off to Orofino tomorrow.

Soon to face the second of the three big mountain passes...Lolo.
