    Okay ladybug, going with the "vague" photo theme, name this Lane. And to think it would have almost taken half a day in 1820 to cover just what you can see and it wouldn't have been this nice! P7130227.JPG

    Nope, far from Starvation, it's more toward Abundance...

    This is going to be a hard one there must be 500 miles of roads that look similar to this within 100 miles of my house The only one I can think of that has Lane in the name is Base Line Lane between HWY 207 and Jordan Grade/Crumm Rd.

    Your fender is on fire, I gave a couple subtle hints knowing it would be hard, with what is grown out here it's just funny how they come up with names! And there is not much more to give it away if I took the same photo to the East.

    To try and narrow this one down a bit, is this in northeastern Washington?

    How about Strawberry Lane Between Hwy 207 & Ione-Boardman Road? It's straight and gravel also.

    That looks a bit like Sullivan Lake in NE WA.

    Good eye Ladybug Sullivan Lake it is. We went up to see how much the Hall Mountain fire had burned. My wife's dad retired for the Forest Service after 35 years and his office was at Sullivan Lake his whole career. OK are you ready to stump us again?

    If you were there now you would freeze your little tushy off. There is a nice dirt road from Sullivan Lake to Priest Lake in Id.

    OK - time to go find a picture. I'll be back with it in a bit (I hope).
