Backroads of Oregon - Day 3
On Monday, August 30, my son, Christopher, daughter, Catherine and I had a full breakfast at the BW. We traveled from Pendleton to La Grande, Elgin, Wallowa, Enterprise, Joseph and Imnaha. The Mt. Loop Road (Hwy 39/86) was closed until fall or later as the road was washed out in five places so back to Enterprise.
We purchased sandwiches for a picnic lunch at Albertsons in Pendleton. We ate our lunch at a picnic area along the Wallowa River located at the end of a very long, narrow gravel road. We stopped at The Blue Banana at 143 Hwy 82 in Lostine where Catherine got a coffee drink. We backtracked to Enterprise where we stayed the night in Room 204-A at the Best Western, 1200 Highland Avenue. We got a large pizza at Family Bake Pizza in Enterprise about 7:30 PM.
The highlights of the day were seeing the exterior of the famous Opera House at Elgin; exploring the exterior and interior of the Blue Banana Espresso at Lostine; and seeing the Brennan gravestone and learning about Walter Brennan’s ranch in Joseph. We found 14 caches and 5 benchmarks.
