Day 1 - Vancouver to Richland
Joking!!! Avenue Bread was indeed open and dishing up coffee and breakfast.
Too cold this morning for the outside bufé though.
And the poor old Stearman dwindles ....
Simoné Cotton Sock's first trip to the Smart for Pets.
The Giant Container Farm is still churning out containers despite the obvious downturn in business due to tariffs. The farmers have even figured out how to genetically encode the livery for the container, so all that needs to be done is plant, pick 'n ship.
Ya know ya Wana...
We didn't even know! Happy Birthday, Ava!
The World-Famous Double Russ Cafe.
The increasingly obscure memory of Hilary is fading further into the rear view mirror.
The long, long queue to get over the Vantage Bridge, now in its 3rd century of renovation.
Finally, Crossing the Columbia.
Simoné Cotton Sock experiences the amazingly green, green grass of the Wanapum Dam visitor's area.
Simoné has to be taught everything, including the roadside drink.
Finally, she gets it.
The endless quest for snacks.
A hop crop races past.
Of course the requisite trip through Russland.
All is as it should be from our balconey unit overlooking the Columbia.
