This trip started after church a couple of Sundays ago. We left home and drove to our dear cousins' home near Boise, Idaho. After spending the night with them, they got up to work, poor folks! We got on the Harley and rode to The Dalles, Oregon. What a beautiful ride. Oregon was greener than usual because of the wet winter we just experienced. After a night at The Dalles, we rode on in to visit the Portland Temple. It's a beauty to be sure! But even more beautiful than the outside is the woodwork in the ordinance room which about took my breath away! To be certain, the craftsmanship in every temple is unexcelled. But the woodwork and detail of the Portland Temple Ordinance Room about floored me! Loved it beyond words!

We spent the night in Portland and then rode to Kennewick, Washington. The Columbia River Gorge is always beautiful but this spring it is spectacular.  Loved it both directions! Wish we would have had some time to wet a fishing line or two!  We attended the Columbia River Temple in Kennewick. It's one of the "smaller" temples but it sure is a beauty!

But we weren't quite done yet! Off to Seattle to spend a night or two. Crossing the mountains was a bit chilly and the wind was blowing to beat the band before we got to the mountains but safely over the top we went and down the other side. What a beautiful ride this was too. After the first night we rode up to Vancouver, Canada to visit the temple there. Another of the "small" temples with big beauty!

But, even that much was just not enough so we rode back to Seattle. The next morning we attended the Seattle temple. What a setting in all those trees, up on that hill! No words!

After our time in the temple we were back on the Harley to Kennewick. Then on Sunday to my cousins' house near Boise, again. A little golf on Monday and headed home Tuesday in time for a granddaughter's dance concert Tuesday night. What a beautiful time we had on this trip. Something like 1625 miles on the Harley.
