On our way over Steven's Pass on Hwy 2, we just had to
get these shots of the brilliant Fall colors. It was the
best
we've ever seen them, in many years of living in Washington. Above is
a panorama (with Bill) of the view from the highway looking
North.

All Seasons River Inn B&B on the Wenatchee River, in Leavenworth, WA
("Little Bavaria") the eastern (dry) side of the Cascade
Mountains.

opposite riverbank from the living room bay window.

One of the 2 dining rooms at the
Inn, seating a total of 12 guests for a scrumptious, gourmet breakfast
each morning at 8:30.

Our
room's large Jacuzzi tub and couch.
|
The "Serenity" room had a
gas fireplace and a porch above the river facing East. Bears are
everywhere at the Inn, but they are harmless "bookworms", as you can see.

|
The
TV room on the 3rd (top) floor. We managed to see part of a World Series
game, but left the rest of the world behind during our 3 days here.
There are no phones or TVs in the rooms.

the Inn's back yard and riverbank.

On the bluff, overlooking the
Wenatchee River, behind the Inn. This was taken during the shadows of
late afternoon.

|
On the way home back over Steven's Pass, 3 inches
of snow had fallen in the night. The first snow of Fall is such a pretty
sight!
|
The highway had been plowed, so it was smooth
sailing.
What a memorable getaway this was!
