A Weekend Adventure The Painted Hills and John Day Fossil Beds

My delightful wife Ann and I decided to take a weekend adventure to the Painted Hills and John Day Fossil Beds after she read an article in the Oregonian, our local newspaper, about them. Even though she was born and raised here she has never been over to see them. It made the perfect excuse for a weekend road trip in the van.

Thanks for posting the direct link. Have no idea why the one I used is not working and I can no longer edit it.

Thanks for posting. Wonderful area! My wife and I are avid birders and spent a week exploring that area and birding in Malheur.

Am glad to hear that you are enjoying the video. Getting there in the late afternoon on a clear day gives the best colors. I never get tired of going into that are.
