We are on the road again trying to add to our bucket list of things to complete. We are gypsies at heart and will try to visit the National Parks out West, tour Oregon and Washington States, sight see the western part of British Columbia, and Back to Alaska. Of course, we can't not visit Montana, Wyoming, Utah, and any states in between. So, come and join us in our adventure.

Mt Hood and Pendleton, Oregon

Yesterday we spent the day touring Mt Hood.  There were people skiing and snow boarding.  I tried to get Paw Paw to rent a board, but no luck.  The Timberline lodge was amazing.  The timbers were at least 24 " wide - I guess it was needed to keep the roof and walls from collapsing from the weight of the snow.  On the way back the coach we stopped to watch the wind surfers on the Columbia River.  Thought maybe Paw Paw might give it a try, but no way!!!! 

Today we traveled to Pendleton to go to the mill.  Awh!!!!  Pendleton wool - the only wool you wear.  The blankets are beautiful and in any design you would want.  Tomorrow we will break into Washington State heading up to Bellingham and the Canadian Border.  We will stop at Mt Rainier on the way. 
Hope all are doing well--miss ya' and love ya'll
