Traveling North

We are on our way to Soap Lake, Washington to begin our pre-rendezvous activities.  We stopped for a little rest in Moro, Oregon which is just near the Washington border.  It is a farming town with beautiful rolling hills of wheat, blowing in the wind.  We visited the local Sherman County Museum which was very interesting.  There was a counted cross-stitch there designed by one of the local women, that I found amazing.  A lot of thought and work went into it. 

We visited the John Day Dam on the Columbia River.  The Columbia River is the largest river in the Pacific Northwest.  Beginning in the Canadian Rockies in British Columbia, Canada.  It then flows through Washington, and forms most of the border between Washington and Oregon before it empties into the Pacific Ocean.  

We will be leaving here tomorrow to join Ken and Carole Adams, the wagonmasters for our Alaska 58 day tour with Adventure Caravans.  We have been looking forward to this trip!
