Camas Prairie Canola Fields
June 24 2007.
We stayed at Mountain
View MH & RV Park in Grangeville last night. It is a Passport
America Park $14 for FHU, cable & wifi. It isn't a resort
but we had shade and a nice large site in a clean environment 208-983-2328.
If you are looking for a "Resort" Christmas tree RV-Resort
is on US 95 less than a mile from the middle of town.
Tonight we will be staying in Lewiston at the Clearwater River
Casino & RV-Resort. We did stay there ONE night but it was
so bad that we moved to Clarkston, Idaho
after just one miserable night. My advice would be for you to stay
in Clarkston, Washington
and avoid Clearwater River Casino & RV-Resort. It ain't no "resort".
Dump might be a better description.
In addition to bright green grain fields yellow canola fields dot
the matrix of fields throughout the Camas
Prairie.
Contrasting patterns between grain & canola fields
in the Camas
Prairie in Idaho
Contrasting patters abound throughout the Camas
Prairie in western Idaho
around Nezperce.
Canola and grain, an amazing contrast in color on the Camas
Prairie of western Idaho
That yellow canola field looks as if someone has painted the field.
It is just that spectacular.
Throughout the Camas
Prairie alternate fields seem to be planted in canola and
grain.
The brilliant yellow canola adds color to the patchwork of fields
on the Camas
Prairie
This canola field adds color to the patchwork of fields.
Note that the Camas
Prairie is becoming hilly.
The northern part of the Camas
Prairie becomes hilly
The further north we go on the Camas
Prairie the more hilly the prairie gets. Canola still adds
to the color while hay fields and grain fields add to the contrast.
Motorcyclist love the beauty of this drive.
We moved the motorhome to Lewiston about 65-miles to the northwest
where we stayed at the Clearwater
River Casino & RV-Resort. The RV-Park is an old KOA and
in bad shape. We would not recommend it. There are several parks in
Clarkston, Washington
that would be much more preferable. Our cell phones work in Washington.
If you have Verizon or Alltel and possibly Sprint you are probably
going to be roaming in most parts of western Idaho
where they are serviced by an "off-brand" cell service that
does not have contracts with the big carriers like Verizon and Alltel.
Things return to normal in Washington.
TV is bad to non-existant at Clearwater River Casino & Resort.
I could go on but won't, ------------- stay in Clarkston, Washington.
Until next time remember how good life is.
