Our Mixed Flock Journey!

[BY Bob]

We had quite a bit of rain today, but it did clear off a bit. This is the Heceta Head Lighthouse.

1830 miles round trip & we are finally home. Thank you everyone for the safe travel wishes.
The pictures I'm sharing today are of the Columbia River Gorge, between Portland, Oregon & Biggs Junction, Or. Growing up I spent almost every 4th of July in this area. Dad would pull us out of school 2 weeks early & we would hit the road to follow the cherry harvest, starting in California then Oregon, Washington & ending in Montana in the Flathead lake area. Needless to say I have a lot of memories along this stretch of highway by the beautiful Columbia river.
Rooster Rock, not the best picture but had to share it!

I've always loved this tunnel. Dad would always honk the horn going through & we always did the same for our kids.

The beautiful Columbia! The landscape is changing as we go along! Soon there will be no more trees!

My brother's and I always wanted to buy this island and put a house on it. Someone is living my dream...there is a house on the other side.

This section of river gets a lot of wind. Wind surfing is a popular activity here.

We will be crossing the river here, the bridge is below the area where you see the furthest wind machines. It's about 2 hours to our house, over a mountain pass, where the same water we now see has already flowed past our home!

Finally home! The strawberries & the rest of the garden have grown beautifully!

We have an abundance of eggs.

The flock looks healthy & they were very happy to get a treat!

I'm so glad you've both enjoyed them. I wanted to share the beauty that I've seen and I've gotten a lot of enjoyment sharing it with everyone here!

We are working on the AC today, but my son pulled me away for a bit of fun! We have a lot of trees & a lot of wind, so that means lots of debris in the pool. Before we went to CA, hubs bought me a trash pump & set up a portable vacuum system for my pool. It does an amazing job.

Now for the fun. While we were gone, my son built me a remote control skimmer to make it easier to clean up after a windy day. So much fun and it does a fantastic job!

The proof is in the net!
