June 18th



I had to include a photo of the wheatfields in Davenport, WA. They were an inspiring sight and another reminder of where our food comes from. Traveling out of Davenport, we enjoyed bing cherries, asparagus, tomatoes and potatoes from the Okanogan valley, wandering along the Columbia River and this fertile farm country. Grand Cooley was a town that we thought deserved more of our time, but we needed to keep moving. In the pretty town of Osowoos, WA we entered British Columbia. We then followed the wine trail through a valley of snow capped peaks and signs saying, "no national park". It was easy to see why they might not want their paradise found by others. The Smilkameen River seemed to offer a sweet ride for rafters along with the mountains to climb and ski.
