Geography Quiz
I haven't done one of these in awhile (though I guess last week's Family Blogging Quiz is sort of in the same category). The question is, can you identify where the above picture was taken? Put your guesses in the comments, and the one that comes closest will earn my everlasting admiration.

The plane makes me think of a character in the show Northern Exposure (which you posted pictures of recently) so I guess this is near the town of Roslyn in Washington

Sally's reasoning sounds reasonable to me but in the interest of variety, I first thought it might be Lake Washington, right there in Seattle. Mom
Dr John,
I really don't think this was taken in the Pacific Northwest.... Washington to be exact. The Hotel on the shore means it is a destination spot - I would guess it could be Coeur D'Alene Idaho due to the cloudy weather.... but I also feel that it could be a lake from your journey to Las Vegas/California and this could be located in Nevada/California someplace. hmmmm is it ok I guessed twice?
Lizzy got it-- it's Lake Coeur d'Alene. I stopped there on my last drive out to Seattle and took the picture then. It was an unseasonably cold day and there was virtually no one around, so a lot of scenery was kind of going to waste. But I guess if you see it all the time...
Dr. John
