“The Power of Water” was today’s theme. The barrista at Starbucks in Spokane suggested we head west on US 2 to Grand Coulee Dam. There we experienced the good luck to be two of two on a tour of the hydroelectric plant within the dam which is the largest power generation plant in the US. Then as we left there and headed west we wandered into Dry Falls State Park. In the visitor’s center we realized that we were in the area of a cataclysmic ice age flood that dramatically changed the landscape of Washington state during the last ice age. Two very powerful experiences in one day! Tonight we are camped at a state park near Yakima.
Our adventure in Halifax was an extremely informative visit to the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic coupled with a beautiful walk from the ship and back again.
It was a fabulous opportunity to not only view the 2024 Solar Eclipse from within the path of totality but also to enjoy a five day weekend with friends from the T@B trailer community at Ohio’s East Harbor State Park on the shore of Lake Erie.
Looks like you are having a really great time. I am so jealous.
