OREGON VACATION DAY 8

Day 8 was an easy day for us with little planned. We went to the little town of Prineville. There was an overlook and you could see the entire town and valley below us. There was a beautiful golf course outside of the town and we stood on the rim and watched for awhile.

We drove into town and got a cup of coffee and took a few pictures. We decided to drive to a small state park that had a good view of a bridge build over the river gorge in 1926 and an new bridge built in the 1990's. The bridges are 300 feet above the river bed. When the first bridge was built, it was the highest bridge in the United States.

We took a small road across country to the town of Sisters, Oregon. We had already been there, but Linda wanted to do a little shopping. After a brief shopping trip, we went back to Eagle Crest to relax and pack for our return home.
