Tonight is the last night of this great trip.  Above is a view of the Blue Mountains from Wildhorse Casino and RV Park just outside of Pendleton, OR, with a fog settled into the foreground.  So beautiful!

We drove here on Sunday from the Boise area.  This is a campground we have used and enjoyed at least 3 times before.  Pendleton is known for its big rodeo, The Pendleton Roundup, which takes place in September.  

On Sunday night we ate at a cute place called the Prodigal Son and sat at a little table cut from a slice of tree and polished. 

Last night we went to the casino to see the movie "Jason Bourne" and halfway through it a thunderstorm blew through and turned off the electricity in the whole area.  We went back to the TrailBayser and, having nothing better to do, went to sleep.  The power came on after about 4 hours.  We went back to the theater tonight to see the rest of the movie.  Gary really liked it.

Gary played 18 holes of golf yesterday and nine today.  I was so glad he was able to do it.  Yesterday was quite windy but today was calm.  The temperatures have reached 81 both days.  So refreshing after the heat wave and humidity in the east. 

Can't wait to see our family and friends at home.  Unless something unexpected happens tomorrow, this will be my last blog entry for this trip.  We have two more short trips tentatively planned for fall.  Stay tuned.
