Nearly 3,000 miles from home, we drove by John Day Dam on the Columbia River with Mount Hood dominating the background. We have passed this way many times on land, in the air, and even on the water. In 1991, we cruised these waters in the Fairy Boat and locked through the dam attached to a tug with four barges that filled the lock. It was a most unusual adventure as we expanded our cruising envelope, ever learning from our experiences with the winds, waves, and waters.
I think that Mount Hood was a little amused by our return this time, and to my mind, it seemed to wink as we passed by. The story of our boat cruise in these waters can be read at: https://eskildoodle.com/columbia-cruise/
