At work Chris saw a picture of these hills and had to find out more. They are called the Painted Hills and are about an hour outside of Prinville....in the middle of nowhere. Literally! They were beautiful! It was amazing to see these hills just randomly in the middle of the normal central Oregon landscape. How did they get there? and why is it only random hills? I still really don't know, but they were very cool!! Hannah did amazing too. She was in such a good mood yesterday and considering we spent the whole day outside and we were surrounded by rocks, she was in Heaven!
Here is the best view! This was the first place you see. They have a few trails around, so this was the first one we went on.
The colors, just look at the cool colors!
This was the second place we went to. You get to walk right up to the hills and they have a cool trail going through them.
Here they are up close. It is just dry clay/mud all cracked. Sounds silly, but the colors were very cool and from far away they look sorta furry!
It was a very fun day and nice to get out and see some more of Oregon that I have never heard of!!
