Travel Oregon...Hood River
Hood River, Oregon was our destination. We were going to farm country, to the Hood River Fruit Loop. Hood River is also known as the Wind Surfing Capital of the World. Get your adrenilan going wind surfing in the mighty Columbia River. But we were in search of cherries and peaches and the satisfaction of picking them right off the trees.

Oregon...Timberline Lodge, Mt. Hood
In the main hall of Timberline Lodge you can check out (and stay warm) around the huge fire place. It was made by WPA workers from the time of the Great Depression. The large fire place was make from rocks from the surrounding area. And the uphostery and drapes were made from fabrics woven by local WPA members.

Oregon...Tillium Lake
A soothing morning at Tillium Lake in the Fall. You can see the summit of Mt. Hood on a clear day. Come in the summer if you want more sun. For us it was just as perfect. And any time is good to that the trail, about three miles long, that circles the whole lake.

We spent a long morning U-Picking on Sauvie Island, just ten miles from Portland, Oregon. First we picked peaches and then visited another farm where we filled baskets with blueberries and blackberries. Make sure you don't leave Oregon without trying some fresh pies filled with Oregon fruits.

On a day trip from Portland, we headed past Tillamook to the Three Capes Scenic Loop. It was a beautiful escape from the enclosure of the Virus. The Oregon Coast does that every time.
