Entering Oregon (Again) and Entering Washington (Again)

Today, I cycled from Crow Butte Park to Touchet, Washington. To make the best of the roads, I crossed the Columbia back into Oregon near Umatilla, but about 15 miles later, I re-entered Washington. As I left the Columbia River to go inland, I enjoyed a few last spectacular views.

The campsite that evening was a bit eerie, as I was the only camper that night. I had one guest, though: A 30 lb wild cat (cougar?) sauntered through the campsite, completely unfazed by my presence, but giving me ample space, as well. Rachel hasn't met a cat she didn't like, but I think this one would have given her pause!
