The first real stop, besides a rest area or two, was Mosier, to visit the Stonehenge semireplica there.

Pomeroy, WA.



Can anyone identify this tree? We couldn't, and theories varied widely.

A flower planter outside the restaurant we ate lunch at in Clarkston, WA.


The Clearwater River west of Lolo Pass, and Russian Creek just east of it.






The last part of drive was in fairly heavy rain, at dusk, on a winding mountain road, with deer darting out of the verges. It was pretty exciting. But in the end, we are here and getting keyed up for the convention, and quite happy about it.
As usual, lots more at the flickr set
