Left Cheney yesterday around noon. Driving across eastern Washington was very much like Wyoming. Dry, dusty, lots of sagebrush. Farmers were busy in the fields, harrowing or cutting hay. The only places that were green were the ones under irrigation. We saw a sign that said for the next 14 miles, the crop types would be written on a sign on the fence. We saw alfalfa, Timothy (hay), potatoes, peas, carrots, sweet corn. We also saw a huge dust tornado. The flat land turned into hills and we entered the Columbia River Gorge. It was windy, windy, windy. The truck and camper were both being blown all over the road. It was actually a little scary. We made it to our house in Yakima around 4 PM. Had some difficulty getting the camper into their fenced in yard – we were backing in from off the main road. Monica & David are wonderful. We all went to eat supper at a Mexican restaurant. We slept very well last night. The temperature dropped during the night and it was very cool. David is a doctor and he is working today. We are hanging out with Monica today.
