All trips are different, and this fall trip had numerous unexpected “life happens” events which resulted in a mostly unplanned trip/route with lots of driving.  Not a trip of slow exploration and searching for the middle of nowhere.  And at the end of the trip, I was chased home with unending rain and snow in the forecast.  Without much of a story to tell, I’ve simply shown some pictures below and included some informational facts that may help others plan a trip.  The trip was October 20 – November 8.  

I think I have driven by the sign directing one to the Maryhill Museum at least twenty times and have never taken the time to stop. This trip I stopped to see the museum.  What the museum contained was surprising and amazing. Maryhill Museum of Art | Fine Art in Southwest Washington   And the founder of the museum; Sam Hill, was equally interesting.  Samuel Hill – Wikipedia
