Lake Chelan is about an hour away from Twisp. Saturday was a nice day so we decided to go check it out and go hiking. There is no road to go around the lake and I think you can drive only about twenty miles before the road stops. There are many houses on that lake and the only way to access them is by boat. Lake Chelan is about 55 miles long and one of deepest lake i the US (about 1400 feet deep). Beautiful mountains surrounding it. We found a hiking trail with difficulty and started hiking without knowing how long it would be or what kind of trail it was. We just liked the name so we went for it: Pot Peak trail head. Anyway, it was steep and covered with snow at the top and trees were burnt…not the best kike we ever done. We did not even get a view! It was nice to be out hiking though; i love hiking and being out in nature. We went out to an old diner, the “Red Apple” or something like, that and it was fun. We don’t go out for dinner often ( I like the quality of home cooked meals better than restaurants ones) but i enjoyed my steak and Derek enjoyed his biscuit and gravy! This boy is funny because he was so excited to get biscuit and gravy for dinner : )
Some of the pictures may not be great because I broke the screen of our camera so I have no way to see what i am taking ( i don’t have a view finder either so it is a lot of guess work) and until we get a new camera (sometime soon) it will have to do it.
Hope your Spring is beautiful. As for us, we are going to be right on time for Lilac season.

did you drive all the way to the Columbia gorge after the Lake Chelan hike?
Hi Tim, Derek told me that the gorge are a very specific part of the Columbia river, somewhere in Oregon, so no, we did not drive there, we just drove by the columbia River, on the way to the lake.
Hi Carole and Derek!
So great to follow and watch your adventures…looks like hard work but so very exciting – and you! Beautiful photos, thanks for sharing!!!

I miss you two so much. It is starting to pull on my heart strings. I love the picture of the two of you; Carole you are so beautiful and Derek so handsome. CC, I think I have to disagree with you on one point, human kids can get even better looking as they grow unlike goat kids whose beauty is only short lived. Look at the two of you. Think how beautiful and funny human babies could be:) (Doesn’t that sound like a Mom?)
All is well here. I am looking forward to visiting you and DZ in WA when you find your home. The thought of the adventure keeps me going. If it is real nice I may have to stay more than three days.
I love you and miss you.
