27 Comments on The Hood River Fruit Loop - A Day of Distractions
Another terrific video, my friend! I love your voice, a very nice vignette of your area . . . but I think the fall leaves fell on your pizza . . . just sayin' :) What a wonderful conversation . . . I loved it . . .
Terrific video Debb, how come my white dog doesn't look that clean? I want to go there for pears too!
The Fruit Loop is something I would enjoy as well. Your communications background shows through in all of your videos Debb...you are so well spoken!
Debb, to be so close to an orchard with apples and peaches would be a great afternoon drive through beautiful scenery!
Mimi - thanks so much - I'm glad you like it. (loved it)The pizza was delicious but, it did look like somebody dropped leaves on it....it was called the Shroom Hunter - lots of mushrooms, white sauce and arugula droppings. :)
Marge - I have to bathe Mac frequently - we have a hot/cold water spigot on our back porch - he normally has a quick shower before he gets to come into the house. ( or long, depending on the adventure) You would love The Fruit Loop - it's really wonderful.
Thanks Anita - that is very nice of you to say - You would love this trip - it's so scenic and they always have lots of samples of the season's harvest.
Joan - it is an area rich in beauty and bounty. I feel lucky to live so close to it - thanks for the visit. It's always good to see you.
Anyone not expericed with the Columbia Gorge drive to Hood River need to take a trip. Absolutely gorgeous. And this event sounds like a lot of fun!! I didn't know about it.
Carla - you do need to visit The Fruit Loop and experience all the fall harvest. The Columbia River Gorge is so magnificant - and I'll bet in a few weeks we'll have some great colors.
Debb - I loved your video of Fruit Loop ride to the Columbia Gorge, Hood River! You were born for video - that tour was beautiful and makes me want to hop on a plane and take this spectacular tour with you! I'll bring Lucy and you bring McKinley, we'll swing by and pick up Gayle with her pups and have a grand ole time. I love the fall harvest and could practically taste the pears and apples - yum!
Oh wow! You are so amazingly talented! Did you enter the video contest? You should have if not.
There is so much to see and do in Washinton. Nice job girlie girl!
Kristine - that would be heavenly. I would be all over that road trip - but we'd have to stretch into a weekend. I know the three of us would find a lot more distractions than we did on Sunday.
The pears are amazing - and the apples taste better than they looked. Lol. Our favorites are the Honey Crisp - so sweet. Hope you're having a great day Jersey woman. (By the way - the best hiking in the Gorge - so bring your boots)
Cathy - I didn't enter the contest - life got in the way and I wanted to enter something specifically for the contest - or not at all. There were plenty of good entries though, so I don't think they missed me. :) Thanks though for your kind words.
Excellent video Debb-You are a natural and Mac is a great addition. Have a great evening.
Debb,
That's a really good blog post. You set the bar higher, and I'm still was having trouble with the low one. Yikes. It would take me a very long time to put together a blog post as professional as that one.
Newcomers to your area, and others, will like this post. I did. Fruit Loop, huh? I love it. Is there 'Fruit Loop' Realty? It looks like a terrific outing, not too dissimilar from a Napa Valley Wine Tour.
I need to consult an Altas of WA. Or Google Earth.
Debb, I get intoxicated by your voice, you know that? And Mac, he was BORN to be a star. But he has to try to RELAX in front of the camera....ha!!!
You are a natural at this, I gotta say. I agree with Gary, the length is perfect. Loved all of those distractions. And, Kristine has the right idea about gathering the clan for a Columbia Gorge and Fishhawk Lake rendezvous. There are a few more of the group we need to include, n'est p'as?
Sharon - you are such a dear. Thank you so much for your friendship in Active Rain. Hope you're doing well and having a great Wednesday. Mac's my baby!
Lloyd - thank you so much. I kind of felt like I should have done my hair, put on a bit more makeup - but then I thought "This is who I am most of the time - especially running around and exploring cool places." I think it's all about being real and relatable. Hopefully that comes through - I'm trying to show people the benefits of where I live, who I am, and hopefully, they'll be comfortable working with me.
Gayle - If you like my voice that much, call anytime, you know I love to chat and I'll give you good phone. :) Yes, my Mac boy is a laid back dude - most of the time. Especially after if he gets his regular runs in during the week. I'm glad we're back on the trails again - finally. Hope that ankle of yours heals up fast.
And yes, we need to add some ladies to that rendezvous.
Hi Debb, Oh, I am so looking forward to some of those really delish apples and pears! We did this loop several years ago when hubby's father was in town and he and his wife couldn't stop talking about how juicy and tasty the fruit was. I love..LOVE your video of your day. You are quite good!
Hi Cindy - you've got a little dribble of something there on the left side of your mouth. *Cute Halloween photo Cindy Lou* Glad you are familiar with the Loop and have experienced it first hand. Thanks for the kinds words and for watching my little Fruit Loop video.
Well done Debb!
Pamela - it's always an honor. Thanks so much.
Hi Deb,
Beautifully done. Informative, interesting and well edited. Btw, great voice over!
Hi there Lynda - what a gracious comment. It means a lot to me - I really love to produce these videos and I'm working to keep honing the craft. It's nice to know you think it's worth watching - after all that's the point. Lol.
