Thanksgiving weekend is too short for a road trip to the Grand Canyon. Fortunately, there is a local alternative that is only 2.5 hours away from us.
对我们而言，感恩节短短几天的假期显然不足以来一次去大峡谷的旅行。幸好，在距离我们2.5小时车程的华州中部也有毫不逊色的地貌景观。
Cave B
Our destination is Cave B Ridge, located in Quincy, Grant County, in mid Washington State. After taking exit from I-90, we drove 10 more minutes to get there.
我们的第一个目的地是Cave B，坐落在山上的小屋群落，俯瞰着Columbia河。

Wanapum
Wanapum used to be a tribe of Native Americans. However, in 1953 the construction of the Priest Rapids Dam and the Wanapum Dam flooded the riverbanks where the Wanapum had lived in traditional tule houses (source: Wikipedia).
