From many places around town we had great views of Mt Adams. Once we even got to see Mt Rainier - that was from the roof of our RV while we were washing her - and only once did the big mountain uncloak herself from her clouds.
Join Diane and Andy. We started this blog as we began our travels across America in our RV in 2004. (This blog will go back to January of 2005, but for 2004 travels you can visit our website at www.diandy.com). In 2009 we settled down once again, but in Colorado. Our family has since grown (and moved), and we are once again eager to explore our beautiful country, and hopefully the world...this time with the intent of sharing our love for travel with our little love.

Toppenish, WA
While in Toppenish we stayed at the Yakama Nations RV Park. Within the RV park are 14 teepees that can be rented out for camping. Fourteen symbolically represents the fourteen tribes that are part of the Yakama Nation. The park sits on the edge of their reservation and is only a short distance to town.
The town of Toppenish is known for it's murals. I've never seen so many murals before. Building after building. Some on the sides, or above the storefronts, or like this one below, you almost have to do a double-take before realizing those windows are painted.
The area is also known for it's wineries. Sometimes I wish we were winos! I think it would've been fun to go from one to another tasting wines. But it would be more fun to do with friends. And, since we are more beer drinkers than wine drinkers we ended up passing on those festivities.
