Day 2: Columbia River to Bend

From:  Marlen Boro
 We drove along the Columbia River this morning – pretty gorgeous – parts were canyon-like – wisps of clouds lingering halfway up steep hills.


But before the river was the tree farm. GreenWood Tree Farm (here’s a link). 31,000 acres of precisely planted trees. It was so amazing. Totally unnatural – but absolutely beautiful. Imagining the orderly forests beyond our field of vision.

 




Jen turned the camera on me.

I paid her back in-kind.

After we left the Columbia River we traveled along the Oregon’s scenic byway, “Journey Through Time“. For lunch we pulled off the highway and tromped through a deserted farm. And took more photos.

 




We’re south of Bend – it’s been raining all evening.  I’m not a fan of rain.
