Camas / Wasougal

"Let's drive east on Hwy 14 and check out Bonneville Dam.   We've never gone on the tour before."

So we ended up in Wasougal before we knew it.  We saw a sign for a museum and found it right across the street from the Pendleton Woolen Mill Store.  The sign stated, "No Tours today", but we went inside to see what was there.  The store was full of anything and everything Pendleton from shirts to coats to handbags none of which seemed to be any kind of bargain.
  Then it was across the street to see what was inside the small-town museum.  The couple that were working, Joe and Dorthy, moved to Wasougal in 1947 so they were very familiar with the stories of the area.  We spent over an hour talking to these nice people. 
   It was after 1:30 and past "time to eat" and we ended up in downtown Callas, a very cute tree-lined downtown area.  Lunch at Natasia's  ( Russian Goulash for R, Chicken and Mushroom Lasanga for me).
Good choice followed by two antique stores made a great day.
