RIVERVIEW

The drive today was pretty amazing. We left Prosser and the miles of grape vines and hop vines and drove south into an area where the Yakima river flowed through the Indian reservation with lots of corn and wheat fields. Then, within a few miles of all that greenery it suddenly became a desert.

Next, we drove up and down some mountainous terrain and saw golden hills spotted with hundreds of windmills. After all that, we didn't know what to expect next. We drove downhill to the Columbia River and our RV camp, the Peach Beach Resort.

The road into the park was through a peach orchard, hence the name Peach Beach! As we checked in the camp host gave us a bag with 2 huge peaches, compliments of the orchard.  As you can see we have a really cool site, and a view of the river. It is warm here but there are lots of shade trees and grass so it feels cooler than the thermometer says it is. There are also some interesting squirrel smells that need more exploration!

Kathe and Jim walked up the road to the orchard fruit stand and bought a few more of the peaches to make a cobbler for dessert tonight!
