Coeur d' Alene is much more touristy and busy than Lake Pend Oreille and Sandpoint but still lots of fun. We took a 90 minute boat cruse of Lake Coeur d' Alene instead of driving around the lake which was very relaxing. The guide gave us a lot of history about the area and explained all the sights we were seeing. There is a unique golf course on the lake that has a floating green that they move every day. They have restored Chris Craft wooden boats that shuttle you over to the golf course from the Coeur d' Alene Resort and Marina. There is a nice park and beach area in Coeur d' Alene next to the resort. Here is a link to some of the pictures I took that day.
We stopped at a local park to see Post Falls. The waterfalls are wide but not real high and there is dam which was not too pretty. The park area is quite nice though. The park is off I90 at exit 5. Here is a link to some shots of the park.
We took a day and drove to Wallace Idaho which is an old mining town. We took a trolly tour of the town and surrounding area. We had lunch at BBQ restaurant which is in one of the old buildings. It was a fun place to take pictures. If you like history and or photography you will like this little town. Here is a link to some of my shots from our day in Wallace.
Here is an article listing why Photography Matters. I think expressing yourself and leaving a legacy are the two most important things to me.
