Before the ambush – Coeur d’Alene

Recent news had Coeur d’Alene, ID in the negative, wtf, spotlight. Strangely, we were visiting the lake last week … we visited Spokane and Yakima, too – Spokane was the highlight as we were there during Hoopfest 2025.

here’s what Coeur d’Alene looked like. It’s a weird place without doubt and not one that even before the ambush, I’d go back to visit (just pass thru). Photos from 6-23 / 24 of 2025 – first day lake was calm, second not so.
