Two Tramp Trip

Friday evening we took off headed to central Washington state to visit my Mom. Since the drive is fairly long, we like to eat in the car to save time. And due to time constraints, I decided to make it very easy and picked up some sushi to munch on. Not too messy to eat in the car but maybe a bit dangerous when Tramp 1 got a pretty big hit of wasabi on one of his bites!

We were treated to some beautiful cloud formations scudding slowly across the high desert.

The sun was setting while random raindrops splattered down on the windshield.

Holding my arm out the car window as we cleared the bridge across the Columbia River got this shot of the river the small boat basin built for the Yakama Indians to use while pursuing their tradition of fishing for salmon.

As the last of the light faded, we passed the final wind turbines that dot the landscape for many miles. These are on the hills above the Columbia as the road climbs up to Goldendale Washington.

Tramp 1 headed back home Sunday afternoon and I am still visiting Mom. She had been requesting some time spent to do some computer tutoring. I think it is so great that she is still learning and has an interest in staying up with technology.
