We are in Hood River, Oregon for the night. We check into the Historic Hood River Hotel in downtown Hood River and hit the ground running. We walk over to the waterfront along the Columbia River to have dinner and a few beers at the local breweries.
Along the waterfront are breweries, restaurants, coffee shops and businesses soon to be opening. It's great place to hang out during the summer months to watch the wind surfers and kite boarders and the rest of the year as Hood River host many events.
We have a pizza and a few beers at the Solstice Pizzaria. Even though we aren't vegan, we still enjoy many of the vegan options on the menu, and we ordered the vegan pesto pizza, which was awesome.
While we waited for a table at Solstace, we walked 5 minutes down the waterfront to Pfriem Family Brewers and enjoyed their beers and sat upstairs overlooking the waterfront park.
After the Pizza we visited the Ferment Brewing Company. We have always enjoyed their selection of beers since they have opened, and they NEVER disappoint. Unique varieties of beer alone traditional Northwest favorites we satisfy everyone in the party.
Heading back to the Historic Hood River Hotel we use our coupons for a free cocktail at Whiskey Tango and meet some friends. We have a few more and move on to have a few more. A great night and so close to the hotel, just a short 5 minute walk away.
In the Morning we have breakfast at Broder Ost. This Nordic restaurant serves traditional meals such as Danish Pancakes for breakfast and Swedish Meatballs for Dinner. We will now come here to eat each time we visit Hood River.
After checking out of the Historic Hood River Hotel, we start the Mt. Hood Fruit Loop Trail. Along the way we stop at cideries, bakeries and country stores. We will come back to do the trail in the summer when all the businesses are opened for the season.

***About***
We are Ron and Jodi. We have been together since 1992 and have been traveling and exploring around the Pacific Northwest and beyond the entire time. Please join us as we go rambling around our next 30 years while living our “work hard, play hard” philosophy. We will try to show as much of our adventures, tips and reviews as we can through our journey practicing for retirement.
This channel will be about adventures big and small, weekend getaways traveling in the motorhome exploring our region to flying away on extended vacations discovering new destinations. We hope to inspire others to make time to travel, explore and discover what our land has to offer.
We love to check out breweries, restaurants, local hikes in the area as well as traveling away to see what other destinations have to show us. We take our dogs as much as we can, but some areas aren't made for our furry kiddos.
Not every video will be an award winner but all we need is someone to laugh and enjoy the ride along the way.
