After stopping at the spot with a gorgeous view I continued onward towards Grand Coulee Dam. I didn't stop anywhere lese, but there was definitely more scenery along the way and not much traffic so I got some photos from the road.
This rock was at the side of the road next to someone's driveway.
The house in this photo looks tiny compared to the landscape it is in.

Grand Coulee Dam is impressive. It is a mile long, 550 feet high and 500 feet thick It is the largest producer of hydropower in the US, and allows for the irrigation of well over half a million acres of farmland. I'm pretty sure I was inside it as a child, back in the days when they gave tours of big dams rather than being scared of terrorists. Now there's a little museum about the dam but no approaching the dam itself. I managed to visit the museum before closing time but it was getting late so I didn't spend a lot of time there.
