Summer Preparation


After a long and heavy winter, the Spring sun is melting most of the snow, and bringing everything back to life.  As the warmer weather, emerging flowers, and baby geese and ducks mark the beginning of spring, we here in Stehekin start to prepare for the busy summer season.  Here are some pictures of what things look like before the visitors get here.

Happy to be home
