Columbia Plateau






We spent a couple more hours on the Oregon Coast before heading over to Portland Sunday afternoon. The rain stayed with us - and actually got pretty blustery that evening. Reed was grey and damp, and some combination of quirky, hippy, and intellectual. Monday afternoon D got to drive from Portland to Hood River through a white knuckle rainstorm - at least I was on the right side of the car so I could admire the waterfalls when I wasn't giving advice.

Walla Walla was cool and hazy sunshine this morning. D got to sit in on a physics class while I searched out coffee and outdoor art. We had lunch in town, then visited Palouse Falls and the Hanford Reach before heading over a wet and slightly slushy Snoqualmie Pass.
