These pictures were taken after we left Wenatchwee, and as we were climbing the Columbia River valley, and drove through the Snoquamlie Pass.

| I have always want to be here! |
 |
| Sparkling Columbia River |
 |
| Orchards in every nook and cranny |
 |
| The four rigs of the Family Caravan |
 |
| The 50-mph winds whipped up a dust bowl. The tumbleweeds were tumbling across the highway. |

| Hairstyles by the 50-mph winds! Evelyn Gayla, Mildred, Marcella |

The wind was blowing at least 50 mph as we viewed the River then drove through the valley. We saw other RVs that lost awnings; duststorms, motorcyclists that were forced to stop. It was fierce!

| The sparkling Columbia River! |
 |
| Leaving the Viewing Area |
 |
| We climbed up and up and up the Columbia River valley--at least ten miles uphill. Waiting at the top were the wind generators. |
 |
| Hundreds of hay storage barns |
 |
| What next? Rain and falling temperatures: it got down to 48 degrees |
 |
What is different/missing in the windshield halves? Did you spot there is no wiper on the left!
|
***Below is the first half of the day. When I downloaded the pictures, the order of the pictures turned upside down!!
The fam group went to a fruit market this morning to see and choose fresh fruit!
 |
| Welcome! Lots of choices |
 |
| Peaches |
 |
| Nectarines |
 |
| A donut peach |
 |
| Walla Walla sweet onions |
 |
| Your choice! |
 |
Sorting pears!

We are looking foward to the sweet cheeries, crisp apples, and maybe a peach cobbler from what we chose.
