We left Pendleton on Jan 17 and drove in Rain to KOA south of Madras. The night was dark and stormy. In the AM, we headed toward Bend. We were driving OR 97 and saw a cool bridge and park to our right. The park featured a bridge built in 1926 for the new millennium. Because of traffic increase, the bridge is replaced but the current Rt 97 bridge (bakgrond o following photo). This bridge and the nearby RR bridge have a length and height of >300 hundred feet. A number of gristly accidents and murders have occurred here.
Here's the RR bridge

As we approached Bend, Will called and said it would b too quiet around the house with Christina and kids leaving to visit he parents. He invited us to return and hang out in Pendleton for a week until he would leave for a long weekend to join them.
We headed back toward Pendleton by way of Malheur and John Day
We stayed at Narrows campground that evening and the next. Then headed for John Day
