Down the Columbia Gorge

Auntie Violet is parked close to the fence that separates 99 RV Park from Hwy 205. She was sleepy this morning -- said she was used to being woke up by the roosters at the Farm!



As you can see by the picture, it is a rainy, wet day here. It started raining during the night and hasn't really stopped since.
We left the farm about 1 PM yesterday and drove Highway 12 through Touchet, then Hwy 730 to join I 84 at Boardman, Oregon. It was a beautiful drive through the Columbia Gorge. There was lots of color from the red of the sumacs to the yellows and bronzes of the deciduous trees among the evergreens.





We stopped at the rest area on the other side of Mosier, taking time to stretch our legs and walk a bit. We arrived at 99 RV Park near Vancouver at 6 PM. It was still light enough to put down the jacks and hook up the electrical and water, but it was dark by the time we extended the slides.
