The Bonneville Dam is an emense structure on a once wild and very damaging river. The Bonneveille and others tamed the river and in the process diverted its power to a beneficial hydroelectric generating role. The dam and its related locks and fish hatchery span the river at Cascade Locks, the site of our campground.
Descriptions of the construction progress of my new Florida model railroad featuring the line from Lakeland to Punta Gorda. Originally a journal of RV trips throughout the United States and Canada with Patti and Bob. Also photo documentation of the progress on my Maryland model railroad, the Allegheny and Shenandoah, a mythical class one line connecting Strasburg VA. with Elkins WV.
