Dr. Otto Stevens presents an all new photographic tour of
the Palouse on Saturday, April 5 at 1 p.m. in the Oakesdale Library and on
Wednesday, April 9 at noon in the Colfax Library. During this fast paced 45
minute presentation called “The Palouse 2013,” Dr. Stevens shares 275 images
while narrating the history, geography, culture and other interesting facts
about our region.
The beginning images were taken on January 4, 2013, of the
“Frosty Palouse Falls” when the temperature had been below freezing for 10
continuous days & nights, and icicles covered the adjacent rocks.
Next are views of the authentic 1890’s furnishings of most of the rooms of a
beautiful, warm, Victorian private home. Add several Field Trip loops
through the croplands of the rolling Palouse hills to the south, east and west,
with 58 new Wind Generators to the north. Contrast the bare walls of a
pioneer Swedish immigrant church on the corner of an Idaho farm, with the
beauty of the altar and stained glass windows of a small town church that was
designed by Spokane’s first trained architect.
