River Trip Day One


Left The Dalles mid-morning and transited both The Dalles and John Day dams.  Despite predictions of great weather, IT RAINED.  Of course it had to rain!  We were on our boat in the Columbia River.  It's just fate!  

A significant wind created a following-sea type of condition, even though we were headed upriver.  We had waves pushing us from behind, and quite a bit of corkscrewing action that made steering an exercise in exercise.

Despite the blustery wind, we made it to Arlington's marina and slept the peaceful sleep of the very-tired.
