( Expect to see this picture often, I love it!!! ) 

The summer and our camp hosting job are coming to an end.  September 7, Labor Day, is our last day of work.  We plan on staying until the end of that week for the Enterprise Mules Days at the county fairgrounds.  We want to see the Dutch Oven Cook-Off and the mule and horse shows.  Weather permitting!
When we leave here we are going to follow the Columbia River Gorge Highway to Portland and then head to Astoria, Oregon on the Coast. The colors here started changing in the middle of August, so the coast should be gorgious in September.

August 14, on the drive to Baker City ( 85 miles from camp) we stopped at the Hole In The Wall Lookout on the Powder River.

The next stop before Baker, was the National Park Oregon Trail Interpretive Center where we saw a great show of the Traveling Medicine Man.

McDove agrees.

Baker City has over fifty historical buildings and we heard the museum there is great, have to come back here, too.

Had dinner at Mr. Ed's. Train running through out the dinner and great food.

I liked the wait staff pouch by Carhart that they had personalized.

The sign says "Extreme Fire Hazard" Can you make out the smoke coming from the tree line?
Picture
Usually the mountains are totally clear.

Love the road side decor.

Back near camp, you can see the color changes on August 14.

Mama and baby can't decide which way to get off the road.
Good night and love to all,  B&D
