Where oh where can they be?

Well, we never made it to Hell's Canyon ... instead we went to the Columbia River Gorge.  It was cool and a little rainy but we managed to hike, bike and drink some good craft beer.  We dried out in warm Yakima, Washington and then proceeded on to Mt. Rainier Nat'l Park ... a favorite ... with hot days and cold nights and plenty of hiking and biking.  Then onward to Seattle to visit Amy and Phil and then Ben and Jesse in Portland.  We also spent some time at Newberry National Volcanic Monument, Crater Lake National Park, Lassen Volcanic National Park and Yosemite National Park ... it is mind boggling!  We are presently camping in  Death Valley National Park ... yes, it is hot! but beautiful.
