Harvest Moon

Well their is a little bit of a breeze this morning along side some gloomy clouds but we have been spoiled with sunshine for so long I am not going to complain to much. 

The fire crews have been busy this week with wildfires through out the gorge area.  Last Thursday right down by the marina in Hood River (only about 28 miles away) a wild fire started and burned over 76 acres before it was contained and yesterday another popped up. According to KATU it is a wild fire that originated in August of this year, this fire which is also adding to the gloomy haze through out the gorge is only 10 percent contained as of today. 

On a brighter side tonight we have some action in the area. The Golden Garter Theatre is performing at the Rock Creek Center in downtown Stevenson.  Bring the family and enjoy a good-old fashioned Magical Melodrama. You can laugh along with this live comedy stage play where "good always triumphs, true love is always mutual and evil is always vanquished." The play is 7:45-10:00 pm and you can reserve your tickets by calling 888-473-7869

Well thats all we hope you have a wonderful day and we will look forward to talking to you soon!

Another Beautiful Day in the Columbia Gorge!

Well the sun is out and the breeze is perfect. Carson is proving to be a perfect location for a sunday drive. We are the gateway to Mount Saint Helans, cozy camp grounds, huckle berry picking and the great out doors. 

The Cabins are hosting guests from all over the U.S. this weekend including New york, California and Seattle, to name a few. New York and California are going to take a drive on highway 35 today. This highway is the original pre- interstate 84 and was placed at a higher level due to the Columbia River not having Dams back in the early 1900's and tended to flood above where 84 is now. At any rate the old Highway is an amazing drive, the entire highway span is filled with waterfalls, hikes, and spectacular views. If you get hungry Multnomah Falls has a beautiful atrium to sit and have lunch from their mouth watering menu while looking out at the falls above.

Tonight the River City Saloon in Hood River is hosting Rootz Underground a revolution reggae sound that is raw, natural and edgy. They are Live at 6:00pm and while your there you can enjoy a meal from their Global Grill. You can grab more information at their web site www.rivercitysaloon.com 

Well enjoy your day and try not to have to much fun!

Pete and Latisha
