Along the Spokane, Portland, & Seattle highline just west of Spokane. Line was built 1906 - 8. Once sported deep yellow-green 160 BFNY's with drips. McL and Maydwell hoops still in the air today. Wrecking crew is working westward about a mile east of here. Soon it will be gone forever. Turning back to the car. The tall poles with the aerial cable once held 7 arms of sparkling glass as A.T.& T.'s east-west main.
