Covered bridges and mountains

Can't seem to get enough and these were as
we were leaving Glacier.

 Slammed on the brakes for this gem. 
However the road was tight and fast drivers
so I didn't linger.
 And how cool is this one with the dramatic skies.
There are a lot of dramatic skies in Oregon.
 The weather changes down the road.
I change outfits at least 3-4 times a day.
Shorts,
Jeans,
Jacket,
back to shorts, etc LOL.
 How cool is where the bridge tender sat on this bridge.
 Found a lovely Pino Gris wine at an eatery
and decided to visit the winery.
 King's Estate was beautiful with fields of lavender
and grapes.
Decided to have lunch and it was absolutely delish as
well as the wine.
They say they ship the wine to Florida.
Will be hunting that down when I get home.

Tearing up the highway like a big ole dinosaur

And making U-turns at picturesque farms. Headed down the wrong path for a brief moment.  It was a pretty ride as we went through Green Mountain National Forest. The trees and mountains are beautiful

And horse farms. Love that I got this quick shot even if there's a bit of speed blur going on. 

And of course, as in any trip we take - there's dramatic skies.  I love how the clouds just kissed the mountain tops and before we knew we were in it. Pea soup and no views from atop the moutain.

Passing through an old town - this clock just happened to jump in my viewfinder. Love the nostalgia of it. And the old, wonderful towns we passed through were just an amazing jump back in time and the houses and shop fronts made me swoon. It was hard to take storefront shots because I kept getting the sideview mirror in there.

And a covered bridge that I didn't get on the first pass. It was like OMG! covered bridge as your brain is processing and then TOO LATE. However, we had to go back to town in order to get to the only real grocery store which was tiny and I was sooooo ready to catch this on the way back.
It makes a lovely screensaver.
