In early September Paul and I had a photography holiday in "The Palouse" located in southeasternWashington, this area combines 208 miles of rolling hills and farmland with a rich history, small town charm, spectacular scenic vistas and outstanding recreational opportunities.
The weather was fantastic the time we were there. It was 95 - 102 degrees Farenheit. We loved it! It was great to have such hot weather after our cold and hardly there summer on the West Coast.

"Dahmen Barn" in Uniontown, WA
"Artisans at the Dahmen Barn" is a non-profit organization that cultivates creativity on the Palouse by providing studio space for working artists. The state-of-the-art facility has been transformed from a former dairy barn. There is over 1000 iron wheels in the fence.
