Sandpoint Realty 'Friday Flag' - January 3, 2025

Sandpoint Realty '1st Friday Flag' for 2025 takes us to neighboring Washington State.

Sandpoint Realty Friday Flag January 2025 Leavenworth

One of our favorite getaways is Leavenworth Washington.  While a relatively short drive from Sandpoint Idaho it is a completely different world, especially during the Holidays.  

This past year a major overhaul was done to lights on Mainstreet.  While impressive before, they are absolutely vibrant and breathtaking with the new lights.  The snow falling only enhancing the Season's ambiance.

Below is a photo of people strolling about on Leavenworth Main Street which is now permanently shut down to vehicles, and for pedestrians only.  Directly to the right, as looking at this photo, is a small hill for kids to tube, sled, slide down.  Very 'Rockwell'

As seemed to be the case with the end of 2024, heading home from this getaway was not easy peasy.  Heavy heavy fog, rain demanded full focus and attention while driving the most of the 6 hours home.  Home safe and now kicking in on 2025.

Nice capture. Seeing a flag regardless of where is always a sight that I note with a big smile.

Leavenworth Washington looks very festive, but probably too cold for my tastes, haha.  I haven't seen you much in the Rain lately, it's good to see you active again!
