Have just returned late last night from our fossil fieldtrip and expedition up North in Republic,Washington. I am pleased to report a 4-star outing as the weather,accomadations,scenic surroundings and friendly locals contributed to this rather exceptional 2 day excursion. One reacurring event which left an imprint on me was the fact that in the community I live in it is not uncommon to see cats and dogs roaming the streets.In Republic it is not uncommon to see deer, bucks and does crossing the streets or grazing in your yard or just plain making their precence known. What can I say. Republic is truely a Blast from the Past.
