A scorcher of a day is on tap for Hood River and the Gorge. Temperatures are predicted to reach 105 degrees in Hood River and even higher in The Dalles. There is currently no wind in Hood River and the temperature continues to rise. Yesterday I was thinking back to those days in January when we had plenty of snow. Remember all that snow? At the time we were so tired of it.
Summer is definately here! Summer events are happening as well as the many outdoor recreation possibilities. Hood River Saturday Market was open yesterday with Marimba music and a full selection of vendors selling fresh grown produce, handmade pottery, clothes, jewelry, and food booths.
Below are pictures from my walk through downtown Hood River this morning. Stratton Gardens is in full bloom. The outdoor seating behind Horsefeathers is now completed.
Perhaps the best plan for today is to find someplace with water and try and stay cool. One always popular spot is the Hood River Aquatic Center. The covers are off now for open air swimming.

I have been to Hood River and really enjoyed it. Your description and picture are great.
That's way too hot for your area! Good thing you have plenty of water so you can cool off.
