We wash laundry before leaving Clarkston around noon. For some reason we have been searching for “best burger” spots on this trip (because it’s been so cold?) and the same kind lady at the desk suggests the “Burger Spot”. We discover it is a “roach wagon” that has been pulled up to a window cut out of a newly built square room. Crazy concept, but the burger is great and the sweet potato fries are wonderful.
We need supplies and check out the newly built WalMart nearby. It is gigantic. Never seen so much stuff under one roof. We wander aimlessly up and down the aisles, delaying our return outside to the cold, windy weather. We are trying to decide whether to head south to hopefully warmer weather or back to the Pelouse area and hopefully more photography. We get gas and head for the heart of the Pelouse and the town of Pullman.
The weather is gray and our photos are flat and dull. Again, more rain and wind. Not a good night for camping and we look for a hotel room in Pullman. We are told there are none available due to some kind of Washington State University golden-oldies reunion. The closest room for the night is in Moscow, Idaho, just across the border 8 miles down the road. We get a room at the Holiday Inn Express & Suites and collapse for the night.
