Turtle

Saw this little turtle by the Spokane river. 

Thought I would get a picture of it. 

Spokane Washington Looff Carousel

Photo By: Deby Dixon 2009

In Spokane, Washington there is an all-original Looff Carousel in operation in Riverfront Park. Located in the heart of downtown Spokane. It is a fun place to take the kids and have fun. There is popcorn, hotdogs, and other treats there as well for all. The carousel has been located in Spokane since it was manufactured and delivered to its original location at Natatorium Park in 1909.

The carousel is still operating in Spokane. Keeping it running and pristine has involved the hard work and devotion of many people for the last 99 years.

The carousel has 54 horses (all "jumpers"), one giraffe, one tiger and 2 chariots.

The official site for the carousel is http://spokanecarrousel.org/. It has a lot of pictures and information about the carousel.

Plants In My Backyard

Here is a picture of some little pink plants that were in my backyard. The pink color is so deep and vibrant. This picture was taken in the summer of 2009 in the evergreen state of Washington.

Mushrooms

These mushrooms were found growing off of a tree. Located on the Liberty Lake walking trail. They are very interesting to look at. They have such beautiful colors and shapes.
