Finally, we are underway with our Airstream we call TrailBayser.  After delays including replacing our tow vehicle, the Jeep with the Infiniti above, we solved the issue of too much weight on the rear axle of the car.  It would have been great if the Airstream people had told us about this in the first place, but salespeople just want to sell.  We also had a couple of water leaks, one Gary fixed on the first trip we took and one that Airstream fixed.  Now we have another one, so our destination tomorrow is Caldwell, ID where there is an Airstream repair facility and we should be able to get this fixed.  It may delay us but we're not on any particular schedule, so we will deal with it.

Tonight we are at Wildhorse Casino and RV Park in Pendleton, OR.  We have been here before and it is a perfect stopover on this trek to the East Coast.  The trip through the Columbia Gorge today was pretty, even though it was overcast and windy.  We saw beautiful Multnomah Falls and passed Bonneville Dam and Hood River, where windsurfers and sailboarders like to sail on the Columbia.  There were a few hearty souls out there even today.

This RV Park is on the desert but since we have had lots of rain it is fairly green right now. 
There are motor homes visiting here, trailers, 5th wheels and also tent campers and some people who use the teepees. 

Baby met a Shih Tzu who was exactly her size and age, but she is very shy and ran away from him.
