On to Touchet

Up early this morning, got our showers, went on line to pay our monthly bills and packed up and were ready to leave shortly after eleven. We headed north on I-84 and soon crossed over into Washington State.

We followed Highway 395 into the Tri-Cities then on over to Burbank. This is country irrigated from the Snake River. It is incredibly rich agricultural land with lots of orchards -

Irrigation systems water fields of wheat (the green in the background) and this field of canola -

And the closer we got to Touchet - and Walla Walla - the more fields of grapes that we saw! This area is becoming a premier wine producing area in the nation.

Of course, the last twenty miles took the longest! We finally came down the hill and saw the Touchet River and knew we weren't that far from Sister Sherry's farm. Time for hugs!
