This Gallery is Columbia River pictures
- rich with "Train Reflections" , windmills,
and all that scenic Oregon can produce.
The
"Train Passing" reflects a memory of the race
to establish railroads in the west. Sam Hill, boastful of
winning that race, dots "The Columbia Hills"
with his home "Maryhill Castle".
"The
Maupin Windmill" served many generations but ultimately, people
relied on the "White River Powerhouse"
. It was the area's first hydropower generator
built in 1902, harnessing energy from "White
River Falls". Through transmutation,
the powerlines began the cry "They're Coming"
.
Despite progress,
the natural pleasures of "The Dalles Sunset"
and the rich colors of "Spring-Juniper Flat"
, "Summer-Barley", and
"Fall-Tygh Ridge" are still appreciated by
man and "Deer" alike.
