Holiday weekends are the best! We went on a long bike ride past neighborhood farms then onto the Cheney-Spokane road. We passed Bradleys Metal Works which looks like a really fun place! There have cool sculptures in the yard!

Then we hooked up with the Fish Lake Trail (that’s a pun!) and then the Columbia Plateau Trail and found there is a wetlands park there!

And finally we made our way into the town of Cheney where Eastern Washington University is. We rode around and looked at the beautiful campus.

On the way home we took Anderson Road which we knew was partly gravel but OMG it was miles of twisty road with lots of up and down and luckily there was hardly any cars because mom was all over the road!  Ha ha ha! Everyone was friendly and waved at us they must not see many bicycles. Mom did good and did not crash the bike.

Then the next day we went back to the Wetlands Park in Cheney and hiked. There were miles of trails and hardly anyone there! There were all kinds of waterfowl and other birds like woodpeckers. I think we saw a Cinnamon Teal, a Hooded Merganser, and a Yellow Headed Blackbird. Here are some photos of the trail and wildflowers.

Also we saw some SNAKES!!  including this gigantic one!!  I am a Tiger I was not scared but mom kept her distance. We think it was a Gopher Snake.
