MEMALOOSE STATE PARK near The Dalles, Oregon


The Chinook Indian tribes of the Columbia Gorge used to lay the bones
of their dead on open pyres on Memaloose Island in the middle of the
Columbia River near The Dalles. A granite monument visible from
Memaloose State Park campground marks the resting place where a local
pioneer named Victor Trevitt wished to chart his eternal course buried
among honorable men.

Today, Memaloose State Park is a virtual oasis of beauty in the hottest
part of the Columbia River Gorge. Temperatures can top 110 F on a
summer day, but Memaloose always manages to provide cool comfort, lush
green grass and shade
thanks to the tall maples and willows that loom large in the park. The
sound of
pulsating sprinklers provides a melodic nighttime rhythm to the
counterpoint of
chirping crickets and lonesome train whistles.

On summer nights, families select prime viewing spots on the cool grass
and open meadows around the campground and observe the nightly
celestial performances of shooting stars, wandering satellites and far
away galaxies.

Many have threatened (promised?) that, to no avail. She says she is only going to post RV stuff now. Pretty strange for this list, but will be a welcome addition. I guess she doesn't want to play games?
