Day 10 - Lyle to Detroit Lake via Bend, Sisters

The Oregon Department of Transport has thoughtfully left this carefully placed and proportioned view slit for a Kodak Moment of Mount Hood. Perfect.

The endless road across the endless prairie.

In the distance, a smoke plume marks the spot of a downed UFO caught in the act of making this crop circle. The USAF denies all knowledge. But we saw it happen.

Boy, are they ever strict. No coffee for you!

Wherever we go, there's always some other photographer he MUST talk to!!

Whole Foods Bend - a taste of the local bounty.

Ooohh, sign us up, sounds like a treat! Oh, it's just a grocery store.

A little beauty spot to brighten the parking lot.

A stern warning .....

which is apparently ignored ......

again .......

again ........

and again!!! Bad customers, bad customers.

So we've escaped the fires at Columbia Gorge, only to traverse straight through a massive burn near Sisters. This is right in Sisters town, late afternoon.

The smoke and glow from the fire casts a very unusual light on the surrounding forests. I hoped to catch the effect, even while we zoomed through the area.
