The Dalles, Oregon

This is a fountain at the fish hatchery that is by the Bonneville dam. It was very interesting; they have the world's largest sturgeon in captivity "Herman". This was Bill's favorite part of the trip and only the second day. Feeding the trout at the hatchery.
This is the fish ladders where all the fish have to go up the Columbia River into the ocean. They have to be all counted. We missed when there was 100 an hour going by, but we still saw some fish going up the ladders.



This is a turbine that was once part of the dam. Huge!


We stopped at a few falls along the way; nature at it's best.
