Inside on one side is where the action happens though no glass artisans nearby this time. On the other side was the gallery. Would have loved to see the artists, especially the ones that created the cool fairies and butterflies outside. The vibe felt pretty business like instead on this day. We were just passing through between drinking wine and eating apples and they were asking if my dog was a service dog as we were inside the gallery. They don't ask that about little children though they were running all over the place. At least my dog was on a leash.. ;)

I didn't know what this fairgrounds is all about. It's in the middle of farming community, and it…read morehas a lot of things to offer, when they have a fair. The 'garages' are on concrete, and a big corner ceiling heater blows hot air to the building. When the big garage door open, it brings a lot of cold 'freezing' air to some of the customers/vendors inside. Many of the vendors have Washington license plates, and the Interstate Bridge is 16 minutes or so from the fair. Some of the vendors drive as far as Happy Valley, or Hillsboro to Hood River. There's plenty of parking in the fields. The customers can walk from one building to the next, to shop with their families, and back again when they decided what they want. People can bring their dogs on a baby buggy or on a leash. This is a place for families to gather & shop and eat or listen to music (inside a garage).

Great little County Fair nestled between the Columbia River Gorge and Mount Hood…read more To the East - there is the Park Stage area with Godfrey the Magician, A Walk on the Wild Side's animals on display, dancers, singers, and pony rides. There is a Community Hall with crafts and food items on display. To the North - in the gym area there are drawings and photographs on display. There is also the football field/main stage area where a huge concert is held on Saturday of the fair. To the West - there are food booths, vendor booths, games, and carnival rides. Beyond that are the animals brought for display and sale by local residents. To the South - parking in the fields. Between the Park Stage area and the carnival rides are the floral exhibit building and the 4H craft exhibit building. Love this Fair and the fairgrounds it is held on. The people running it are friendly and helpful. It's great to see so many families spending quality time together at the fair. Many of the food vendors are local families with food establishments in the area.

Cute boutique gift shop. I can't think of any other place in The Dalles quite like this one. This…read moreis typically the kind of place you would find in downtown Hood River, but much less pretentious and more affordable. They have a large, impressive selection of soaps and candles. They also go heavy on unique kitchen gadgets with lots of local flair. The perfect store to pick up a last minute birthday, baby shower, wedding shower gift. And they do gift wrapping!

What a fun and eclectic shop with am equally quirky name that draws you in! While driving through…read moreGoldendale, I noticed the sign and ventured in. Sandra, the owner and artist, is super friendly and engaging. Her studio where she does mosaics and also teaches classes is to the left. The rest of the space is dedicated to vintage clothing and lots of tchotchke! Most items totally unique, the kind that 99% of the people would say, "who would ant this?" While one person sequels with delight and says, " I have to have this!" An obvious love of Japanese fabrics and memorablia, there was a large selection of Japanese Kimonos. The blue and white one caught my attention immediately but it was surprisingly long and several inches would drag on the floor if I bought it. As part of a charity event for breast cancer, Sandra designed two bras that are hanging on the wall and had me laughing out loud. One adorned with Lipton tea bags that say "Your small cup can make a big difference." And a bra with cups resembling a monkey with bananas dangling from the band. What a hoot! A collection of Manley Men featuring troubadours and Elvis, piggy banks, mismatched dishes, glasses and serving pieces, art, Asian figurines, and clothing fills the space. No purchases for me this visit but I will definitely stop in again next time I'm driving through! Monkeyshine just celebrated their 10th anniversary and I wish them many more!
