On Sunday morning we departed Nampa, ID for Independence, OR. Rogue Brewery’s hop farm is there and they were having their annual hop harvest festival. Also one of Ava’s good friends moved to that area earlier in the Summer so we made plans so they could spend the day together as well on the farm.<\/p>\n

We made one fuel\/break stop at Prineville, OR. Prineville is in the Bend\/Redmond area just east of the Cascades.<\/p>\n

Flying through the Cascades was really pretty. This is about 15 miles north of the Three Sisters.<\/p>\n

We grabbed the courtesy car from Nutsch Aviation in Independence and headed to the farm. We were greeted by Tom the turkey that lives on the farm with two hens that he keeps a close watch over.<\/p>\n

Most of the hops were actually harvested a few weeks earlier and only the trellises remain.<\/p>\n

\"20130908_115030\"<\/a><\/p>\n

There are two pigs that live on the farm, Voo and Doo. Not sure which one is which, but this one was really friendly.<\/p>\n

This is the “Hop ‘n Bed”, a 100 year old farm house that can be rented as a bed and breakfast. Sleeps 12.<\/p>\n

The girls had a great time playing on this old tree swing:<\/p>\n

And running through the hop yard…<\/p>\n

All the girls got their face painted, which they loved.

And finally headed back the following morning. Took a slight detour to get a good view of Mt. Jefferson. Mt Hood is in the background.<\/p>\n
