Sunset Over the Border

Monday, August 3, 2015

To end Monday I had made it from the Painted Hills and John Day Fossil Beds, through eastern Oregon and north to the border and the Columbia River Gorge. I had just crossed over into Washington state as the sun was starting to set. The blue sky became golden and then red as I whisked by large wind turbines on the hills. I was going to Tri-Cities for the next two days to visit friends. My trip was almost over and I would be heading back to the southeast soon…
