Salem, Day One

 Although we are now in Salem, it took nearly a day to get here! So much traffic! Especially in the Portland area. I may never go this way again. But I did get lots of pictures. The Columbia River is magnificent.

My camera dumps all of the photos into one folder, so I am still trying to sort out what is new and what I already posted.

It seemed incongruous to me that the hillsides right on the river would be so barren looking!

Later, we did get to see trees.


Mt. Hood


Bonneville Dam

When we got to the turnoff for our RV park in Silverton...we discovered the road was closed. Yes, there were signs, but it was a long day and no real easy to decipher alternative. I  helped Cary back up the trailer into a driveway on the closed road.  I am sure we weren't the only RVers who had to do the same thing. At least that is what I am telling myself!

We got set up, called our friends in Salem and made plans to go over after showers and lunch. Cary was hoping for Mexican food for supper, so  Ginger took us to our favorite spot nearby, where we ate way too much, leaving no room for her key lime pie! But we are going back tomorrow.
