Life in Walla Walla

We recently moved from Ohio to Walla Walla, Washington.  When we were in Ohio, we always complained that we felt like we were in the middle of no-where, especially after having lived in San Francisco.  However, we had no idea there are other places in America that are even more remote than Athens, Ohio.    
Walla Walla is a small town in south eastern Washington, once famed for its sweet onions, now it's primarily known for its delicious wines.  In the last 15 years the region has grown from a handful of wineries to over 150!  Walla Walla is located in a dry valley surrounded by wheat fields, vineyards and the Blue Mountains of northern Oregon.    Below are some pictures of our new home.

Walla what?  Where the fuck are we?!??

Along with a new home, Charlie has a new bed.

Charlie's new playmate, "Bobb"

They're perfect playmates...but we think Charlie likes Bobb more than Bobb likes Charlie.  Poor Charlie.
