Dam bubbles

Ellen Arment uses equipment she has put together to produce giant bubbles at the "Riley Point" overlook just below Grand Coulee Dam Saturday. Arment has been into making bubbles for about 30 years, but only started producing giant ones two-and-a-half years ago. "It's way fun," she said. "I do it to bring people smiles." Arment, of Spokane, grew up in Coulee Dam, the daughter of Edward and Josephine Ayers. - Scott Hunter photo
