Diversion, Road Trip...59º

Somewhere during all the whirlwind/craziness of kittens, time with family, sorting and cleaning, a day dawned bright and clear, signaling time for a little getaway...Our Girls had returned to Portland, Rusty had plans for the day, Herb needed a day of quiet to catch up on his reading and naps, and I needed a diversion...So when Pam called and said I have the day off, do you want to do the Twin Lakes trip that we've talked about for several years now?

This was really a busmans' holiday for her, she did the driving and I went along for the ride...The route was familiar, "39 road (Wallowa Mountain Loop)" a road we have traveled many times over the  the years, but a road with many side trips that we never took because we always had a destination in mind...I can't count the number of times I've seen the sign for Twin Lakes and thought, someday I want to go there...Our day not only took us to Twin Lakes, but since we were so close to Halfway, OR, we decided that would be a good place to go for lunch, and return to take the side trip of 30 miles to Twin...Fish Lake is also on our list but snow blocked the road so another trip is in the planning for a day when we can go to Halfway, visit Cornucopia and Fish Lake, maybe we will see Twin Lakes again...Another day when we need a diversion...Hugs to All...OWAV:)

Stream side, we reminisce.

Moss covered rocks, photo can't do it justice.
