Pendleton Saturday Night

Saturday, we traveled 87 miles to Wildhorse Casino RV Campground outside of Pendelton, Oregon. Pam and I went to downtown to the Prodical Sun Brewery for a beer and a bite. The beer was great. I bought a couple of growler cans of “Righteous Indignation” a red beer. We had the General’s Cauliflower, and it was great. Deep fried Cauliflower with a spicy sauce.

We then walked around to see the town. We ran into “Get Wild in Pendleton” – Live music every Saturday night. the “High Milage Band” was playing country music. It was fun. We sat outside and had a couple of margaritas from Joe’s Fiesta Grill and Cantina. We stayed for 2 sets and really had a great time.

Anthony Lake Hike

On Friday, Pam and Kelly drove (31 miles) to Anthony Like to hike in the mountains. We hiked around Anthony Lake, Black Lake and Lilly Pad Lake.

The hikes were easy and well-marked. In all, we hiked just over 4 miles. The trails were not crowded for a Friday. We only ran into a few people. Very calm and relaxing hike.

Baker City Downtown Wine Walk

On Thursday night, a group of us did the Baker City Downtown Wine Walk. A $10 donation gets you a BCD logo wine glass and a map. You then stroll around downtown visiting local business that serve small adult beverages. There were 14 stops in all, and it was a blast. We then finished the tour at the Brewery.

Haines & Baker City Museums

On Thursday, we visited the Haines Eastern Oregon Museum and the Baker City Heritage Museum with Al and Betty Moody.

The Haines Museum has the feel of an old Antique store. They have groups of artifacts from the area that really show life in wild west. For example, they have the original telephone switchboard that was used until the 1960’s and Model T Ford.

The Baker City Museum is very professional, and well done. It is in the 100-year-old Baker Municipal Natatorium (aquatic center). They have a massive rock and gem exhibit as well as a Wally Byam exhibit (the founder of Airstream trailers). He was born in Baker City.

Mountain View RV Pak – Baker City Oregon

On Wednesday, we drove 107 miles to Mountain View RV Park in Baker City, Oregon (our 25th State). Another very nice park with full hookups and nice, shaded sites; we had site 101. We arrived early to be the “Parkers” to help the other 11 campers get to their sites; there were no issues.

The park has a nice General Store, very good laundry and shower facilities. A pool and a spa. All very nice. Very quiet on the north end of town.

Wednesday evening, we had dinner at Paizano’s Pizza. We really enjoyed the Lumberjack Pizza and beer. Josh served us and gave us good ideas on what to see in the area. Very helpful. While eating, a guy picked up his family dinner packing heat.

On Thursday, we had lunch at the “Little Pig“. The food was very good. They roast their own coffee so we picked up a bag of beans. The people were super friendly, and we really enjoyed it.

Friday morning, we went to the Sweet Wife Bakery for breakfast. The food was outstanding. We shared a sticky bun as a breakfast appetizer; Pam had the Quiche and Kelly had the breakfast plate. Both were great. Pam loved her Capuchino.

On Friday, after our hike, the group had dinner at the Haines Steakhouse. They have a great salad bar and the steaks were quite good and we thought the prices were reasonable.
