Trip to Idaho and Oregon

From April 9 through 14, my husband Eric and I took a trip out West to visit his Mom and to meet up with both his sisters for the first time in many years.  It was wonderful catching up with family, and taking time to tour some of the area.  Here are a few photos from the 800+ that I took during the trip.

The hills above Baker City, OR ..

 The quaint town of Joseph, OR.  Many of the shops hadn't yet opened for the season.

 The Elkhorn Mountains, as seen from Pilcher Lake, OR

 A bucket list visit to see the Oregon Trail.  The Interpretive Center was wonderful. 

 The landscape in Enterprise, OR

 Roadside farm with a dramatic sky and young crops.

 Coming back to Baker City in the late afternoon rain.

 Small towns like this one can look spooky or they can look comforting. It depends on your viewpoint.

 A vague map of our route.  We flew into Boise and made the three hour drive up to Baker City, OR.  Joseph is another hour and a half north of Baker City. Beautiful country out there.
