The Last Full Day

We decided to have a very relaxed last full day in Spokane.  For us, that included a visit to the Northwest Museum of Society and Culture and a decadent dinner. 

We got to the museum just in time to take the last tour of the day of the Campbell House!  It was really interesting and fun.  

These young men were not able to stay for the whole tour.  They had ridden on bikes from Baltimore, MD and were on their way to Seattle with 4 K for Cancer. They dedicate each leg of their ride to someone who had died of cancer.  Our tour guide had lost her husband Tom to cancer, so they are going to dedicate the next leg of their ride to him. 

The basement had a room for Mr. Campbell and his friends to play cards and drink brandy- the only room in the house where alcohol was allowed, as Mrs. Campbell was a temperance woman. 

They also had electric lights.  They were charged for electricity per lightbulb in those early days of electric in houses.  They also had indoor plumbing, which was nice for the family and the servants alike!

We did not take many pictures today.

The museum had everything set up as storytelling, which really pleased Cathy.  Stop by if you're in the area- totally worth the visit!

After the museum, we went back to our apartment to get ready for dinner.  We decided to have our last dinner in Spokane at Clickerdaggers, which is housed in an old flour factory. We loved everything we ate!

Cathy had prawns and crab.

After our huge (and really, REALLY good!) dinner, we walked through Riverside Park and stopped by the Davenport Hotel to see the historical pictures on the second floor. Another place worth a stop if you have a moment! 

On our way back to our awesome rental car, the mini banana mobile, we stopped at Inspiration Point, which is dedicated to Christian pioneers.

We've had a great time and really recommend Spokane!
