As promised, here are photos from yesterday's Hood River excursion. We started off at a cider tasting, then went to a Swiss-German Edelweiss Festival. It was ridiculously wholesome, and kind of like a combination picnic, harvest festival, and garage sale.
After that, we hit the road...
...and ended up at the alpaca farm. Alpaca are soft and friendly, but very strange.
This was the Alpaca's giant guard dog, Charlie. He was extremely friendly too (and extremely soft), but I'm not so sure how good of guard dog he was.
After the Alpacas, we went to some other farm for a late lunch and apple butter festival. Dessert was "Fried Biscuits" and apple butter. Fried biscuits are just like little, super fresh donut holes. Wow! They were delicious! I've never had warm donut holes with apple butter before. I highly recommend it.
From there, we continued on to wine tasting at Pheasant Valley Vineyards, and a mosey around the Gorge White House. Finally, we wandered around Hood River a bit, and then headed home. It really was a perfect fall day.
