Our wall of lights surrounding the Bill Murray portrait in the dining room, which we call our “captain’s parlor,” because you won’t see that in any other home.

We’ll have lunch at this historic lodge that firefighters worked so hard to save from the devastating fires in 2017. After lunch, we’ll head up to Hood River, a lovely town right on the Columbia where we can take a moment to watch the windsurfers who swarm the Columbia River with their brightly colored kites.
