We left Toppenish at 9:20 and we stayed connected with Bob and Janet using the CB on channel 3. We soon found out that Our light were not working properly again. We traveled through the rest of the beautiful Yakima Valley and then crossed into Oregon. This is mainly grassland and so the countryside is all brown. They grow grain here and harvest is finished. It was quite hot before noon. We got a message from Janet saying our lights are back to normal.??? We stopped at the Wal-Mart at exit 209. On our way into the store we met Phil and Judy... the other Abbotsford couple. Anyway we all shopped and I got a deal on yarn for the toques and a new tee shirt. We had lunch in our rigs and soon we were on the road again. Ken lead and Phil drove shotgun. We arrived here at Eagles Hot Lake R.V.Park around three. We got all set up. The awnings went out because it is VERY hot. We were assured that it cools off at night. They were right... at this moment my hands are cold as I type. Anyway we had a good Happy Hour and then everyone went into LaGrande for dinner. As usual the portions are huge and we end up bringing over half of our servings back to the trailer. When we left the restaurant we could feel it was cooling off. We just relaxed and then called it a night, everyone is tired after travelling in the heat.
