Adventure came my way this week once again, with sunshine and thunderheads, wildflowers and quaint little towns. Bickleton Highway... it called me and I ran (and stopped a LOT) among the Eastern Klickitat County terrain that i know so little about. WHat a delightful surprise that way! I slept on a back road in my truck at about 2000 ft elevation I would guess, and by the time I got to the town of Bickleton I was at 3000 ft elevation and the storm that I had been chasing has dumped rain and hail on the streets just before I arrived in my little red truck. Lunch in the Bluebird Cafe was a delicious Salmon burger and salad, a perfect meal for the journey.
I am uploading mass images this time into a photo album of their own.
Bickleton, Washington is home to many lovely Bluebirds, and in fact is well knows as a Bluebird Capital. Folks there make and tend to perhaps hundreds of bluebird houses along Bluebird trails in this high altitude plateau country in Eastern Klickitat County.;

Lunch in the Bluebird Cafe was a delicious Salmon burger and salad, a perfect meal for the journey. After lunch and some more shooting around town and just outside, I wandered back home via a southern route that took me among many windmills at sunset and back down to the Gorge near Roosevelt. From there I took highway 14 back to White Salmon, tired and happy.

So there's this farmhouse, just outside of Goldendale on the road up to Bickleton, in central southern Washington - looking all cool like that, how could I not shoot it?

A "Dad" Mountain Bluebird. Many of the bluebirds hang out at the cemetary, and there's some good parking on the side of the road across from it. There are bird houses all around the town, in the cemetary, and in associated farms/ranches.
1953 Studebaker truck (thanks to Steve for the year).
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Studebaker
Studebaker entered the automotive business in 1902 with electric vehicles and in 1904 with gasoline vehicles, all sold under the name "Studebaker Automobile Company". Until 1911, its automotive division operated in partnership with the E-M-F Company and the Superior Coach Company (the latter then known as the Garford Motor Truck Company).
The first gasoline cars to be fully manufactured by Studebaker were marketed in August 1912.[2]:p231 Over the next 50 years, the company established an enviable reputation for quality and reliability. The South Bend plant ceased production on December 20, 1963, and the last Studebaker car rolled off the Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, plant on March 16, 1966.

This colorful carousel is complete with hand-carved wooden animals and a Wurlitzer band organ. Herschell-Spillman made the only carousels with giant green frogs--and they are the only carousel animals that wear human clothing.
The Herschell-Spillman Company built this carousel in 1913 in North Teswanda, New York. Their talented craftsmen created a wider variety of hand-carved carousel animals of any manufacturer, ranging from storks, to giraffes to zebras. Although the original location of this carousel is unknown, it operated in Spokane, Washington from 1923 until the 1950’s when it was moved from Liberty Lake, Washington to Greenfield Village.
A main attraction, the carousel is a symbol of an era that centered around the turn of the century, The colorful carousel has never lost its appeal. Young and old alike are still enthralled with an old carousel.
Some of the first American carousels were made and used in New York. In the 1890’s there were carousels at North Beach, Long Island, Brooklyn, and at Central Park as well as at locations throughout upstate New York. Today the Herschell-Spillman Carousel Factory in North Tonawanda, New York is on the National Register of Historic Places and serves as a carousel museum. Restored Herschell-Spillman carousels are now featured at Greenfield Village, the Strong Museum in Rochester, New York, in Livingston, South Dakota, and in Bickleton, Washington.

The Whoop-N-Holler museum is 11 miles south of Bickleton, WA just off of East Road on Whitmore Road. Lawrence and Ada Ruth Whitmore own and manage the museum. Lawrence is shown in their huge shed stuffed with Model T Fords, antique pickups, an ancient horse drawn hearse on sled runners, along with cars which are no longer made such as Maxwell, Edsel, and Studebaker. The car to his right (your left) is a 1939 Plymouth which had the ship as a hood ornament.
The car that caught my attention in the shed was the 1968 Studebaker Hawk. When I met and married my husband he had a Studebaker Hawk, though it had to have been made before 1959 since that's when we met.
The museum is named after the antics of the now-grown Whitmore children.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DB_(car)
DB was a French automobile maker between 1938 and 1961. The firm was founded by Charles Deutsch and René Bonnet. It produced light sports cars with fiberglass bodies mainly powered by Panhard flat-twin engines.
DB was very active in competition especially in Le Mans 24 Hours. Deutsch introduced some very efficient and influential aerodynamic designs which allowed DB race cars to reach impressive top speed despite the small Panhard flat-twin engine.
Deutsch and Bonnet disagreed whether they should build cars with front-wheel drive or with central engine.
Charles Deutsch left DB in 1961 to found his own firm (CD) and DB became Automobiles René Bonnet, producing cars powered by Renault engines, which later became Matra Automobiles.

In the open areas of western North America, horned larks are among the bird species most often killed by wind turbines.[3] In 2013, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service listed the subspecies Streaked Horned Lark (Eremophila alpestris strigata) as threatened under the Endangered Species Act.
