Fumée, fumerolles, geysers, eau bouillante, souffre

Un long mot en ce samedi matin, lendemain de veille. En effet, pour la sortie du vendredi soir, nous avons opté pour downtown Billings, Montana. On pensait y trouver un saloon confortable, mais nous avons fini dans un excellent restaurant servant, dixit Pierre, les meilleurs fish cakes jamais mangés dans sa vie, ainsi qu'un steak de buffalo sur des... lentilles et épinards! Le tout arrosé d'un délicieux Vacqueyras.

La semaine dernière, nous avons eu droit à deux jours de fumée de feux de forêts. Pas terrible.

Un petit morceau de l'Idaho enfumé:

Malgré tout, nous avons campé dans une forêt (qui ne brûlait pas), au bord d'un creek, tout à fait charming. En passant, le nom de creek le plus souvent rencontré: Rock Creek. Ils sont partout les Rock Creek, du Nebraska au Wyoming en passant par le Nouveau-Mexique et l'Oregon.

YELLOWSTONE

Wow, quelle découverte. Ce parc nous permet de camper dans un volcan, de prendre une douche de geyser et de découvrir toutes sortes de phénomènes géologiques étranges dus à l'activité volcanique. On peut voir des sources d'eau thermales qui ne sont pas seulement chaudes, elles bouillonnent véritablement à quelques pieds de nous! Certaines donnent envie de plonger dedans, d'autres sont carrément dégueulasses (et accompagnées d'odeurs d'oeufs pourris), mais toutes sont spectaculaires ou impressionantes. Le magma se trouve à seulement 2km sous terre... et celle-ci tremble entre 1000 et 3000 fois par an dans le parc.

On vous épargne la photo de Old Faithful. En voici d'autres plus intéressantes.

Mammoth Hot Springs Terrasses

Il y a aussi un grand canyon, celui de la Yellowstone, qui est tout à fait spectaculaire, mais les photos ne sont pas encore téléchargées.

En passant, Andrée, ne cherche plus le Allo Andrée, la pancarte est repartie avec les gars.

COLUMBIA RIVER GORGE

La Columbia River Gorge, à l'est de Portland, Oregon, fait la frontière entre Washington et l'Oregon. C'est une gorge très surprenante parce qu'à l'ouest, elle fait penser au fjord du Saguenay. La végétation est abondante et variée, avec beaucoup de conifères. On peut même voir de grandes chutes le long de la route, comme ça par surprise, mais quand on arrête voir de plus près, on découvre aussi des centaines de touristes japonais.

Près de Portland:
Multnomah Falls, avec échantillon de touristes sur le petit pont:


Et puis moins d'une centaine de kilomètres à l'est, la région est complètement désertique et si on y voit du vert, c'est que quelqu'un arrose la place. Vue de la rivière alors que nous sommes de l'autre côté, dans Washington; c'est le Mt. Hood en arrière qui est encore enneigé:

EN VRAC

  • Nous avons oublié de dire à Louise et Victor (ainsi qu'à tous leurs visiteurs à Bandol) que nous avons eu l'occasion de penser aux trains-surprise à deux reprises... la première, à San Elijo en Californie. C'était un super beau site sur le bord d'une petite falaise surplombant la mer (je crois que ce fut le coup de coeur de Philippe). Mais il y avait un train qui passait derrière le camping. La seconde fois, c'était dans la Columbia River Gorge en Oregon, un beau petit camping verdoyant sur le bord de la Deschutes River qui se jette dans la Columbia un peu plus loin. Mais il y avait le train que voici caché par la paroi rocheuse. Le hic c'est qu'ici les trains sifflent. Et pas à peu près. Jour et nuit.
  • Pour le concours de fleurs cette semaine: bouquet des hauteurs de Red Lodge, Montana.

  • Jo, l'enseigne du Festival de testicules de Rock Creek, Montana, était encore là lorsque nous sommes passés. Elle était très très subtile (!). Mais nous sommes passés trop vite pour prendre une photo et le demi-tour ne nous tentait pas vraiment. Et ne t'inquiète pas pour notre passage dans l'Amérique profonde. Il sera de courte durée: la limite de vitesse sur la 94 est de 75 miles per hour. Tu peux donc te lancer dans les suggestions pour le Minessota, sur la ligne entre Fargo et Duluth, puis plus à l'est encore au Michigan. On entre au Canada à la hauteur de Sault Ste Marie (on va aller leur parler en français à ceux là).
  • Il ne nous reste plus qu'une semaine. Bouhouhou...snif snif....bouhouhou...snif. Une consolation svp: que la gang de Lao Tseu nous donne des indices!!! On veut savoir c'est qui qui (c'est kiki?) est derrière le clavier. D'ailleurs, j'offre (car j'ai obtenu la recette originale de Walkers at Billings) à toute personne donnant une information permettant d'identifier celui ou celle qui agit dans l'anonymat pour Lao Tseu et ses amis, une dégustation de Scallops and Salmon Cakes. Bien sûr la personne gagnante pourra inviter sa, son ou ses collaborateurs. Quant à Lao Tseu lui-même, nous verrons.

-Grand Rapids : maison natale de Judy Garland! Vous pourrez également jeter un coup d'oeil au jardin des bols de toilette : des rangées et rangées de bols de toilette remplis de fleurs.

-À Nisswa près de Brainerd, on ferme la route le mercredi pour la course des tortues. 200-300 participants! C'est la capitale mondiale des courses de tortues! Excitant ça!

-Enfin, un must qui vaut le détour (c'est tout au sud de l'État) : le musée du Spam à Austin. Il y a dégustation tout au long de la visite!

C'est pas riche. Le reste,ça tourne autour de Paul Bunyan. parcs, musées, statues géantes, en veux-tu en v'là...
