A Day in Town - July 12, 2011

After driving all day yesterday, we decided to just hang around town today.  After breakfast we walked into town.  We browsed in a couple of book stores and scouted out a place for lunch and dinner.  The weather was off and on showers, but we always managed to be near someplace interesting to duck into when necessary. 

Hood River, because it's along the Columbia Gorge, is known for being very windy.  For that reason, it's a top spot for wind surfing and kite boarding.  This photo shows a couple of surfers out in the morning.

By early afternoon we had worn out our feet, so we returned to the B&B for a lazy couple of hours.  In the evening we walked back into town for dinner at Brian's Pourhouse.
