Benton County Justice Center - The day is coming. Tommy.

Benton County Justice Center

(3 reviews)

So had to do a minor stint in the Justice center…read more The guards were amazing and professional and treated me like a person and not a animal. They were very down to earth and we're accommodating in many ways. The nurses were equally as helpful and assisted in individual needs. The judge sucked seemed like he had a hell of a day but hey Justice isn't always pleasant. The food sucked ass but they did serve 3 meals a day and it was hot. I was in a good pod that allowed for TV and low risk inmates. We were all just doing our time and paying our debts to the system Showers were hot Bed mattress stunk All in all I don't condone breaking the law because it's a road that never ends. If you end up in Benton county corrections you won't have the hardest time serving out your time.

They finally got me. I was charged for Yelping with abandon in Benton County. I pleaded: GUILTY…read more Seriously, I made my trip to the Justice Center for my first Jury Duty experience. I thought of pulling a Lez Lemon, and showing up in a Han Solo outfit, but I was curiously intrigued with learning about the whole experience. They have been having some issues with their online & call-in system, but I had no issues with determining whether I was needed. The staff at the Center were pretty cool. Some of the Jury candidates were hella funny and memorable. Sadly, I didn't make it for Jury selection--my number was just too high. It was a cool experience nonetheless.

I spent a couple of days in Pendleton and stumbled upon this on Yelp. Just a heads-up, you'll need…read moreto book a reservation because the groups tend to fill up quickly--we had 17 people in our group! This was definitely more than we were expecting! The tour was about 1.3 hours long, and you'll need to climb and descend stairs and squeeze into small spaces. If any of that sounds like a challenge, it might not be the right fit for you. Our tour guide was "BRAD," and he was amazing! He's practically "been there, done that." He grew up exploring these tunnels with his friends and has all sorts of stories to share. You'll learn a lot about the history and some simple sayings that will make you laugh and give you a deeper understanding. For example, there's a "Shoot" of whiskey! From the outside, you have no idea how huge this place is, and we only get to see a small part. Don't miss out if you get the chance. We'd definitely go back and bring a friend who hasn't seen it before.

We signed up for the adults (21+) only tour which was $30 a person. It started in the shamrock…read moreunderground bar. The price of the ticket included a free drink token, 3 shots during the tour, and a sample of a local meat company. The tour was led by Matt and is meant for mature adults who don't get upset or offended by certain language. It was such a fun tour. Matt told us the history while making it fun throughout the whole 2 hour tour. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who wants to add a little bit more fun to the tour.

Whitman Mission National Historic Site - Exterior of the visitor center

Whitman Mission National Historic Site

This historic site serves as a reminder to a part of American history that is pretty much…read moreoverlooked: the clashes between settlers and the Native Americans who already were inhabiting the land. Physician Marcus Whitman and Narcissa Whitman established the Whitman Mission in Cayuse (Native American) territory. The Cayuse initially welcomed the Whitmans, but as the increasing numbers of settlers passing by on Oregon Trail worried the Cayuse, tensions grew. It all came to a head when a measles outbreak in November 1847 killed half the local Cayuse. The settlers were also affected, but fared better. The Cayuse took it to mean that the Whitmans were responsible for the deaths of the Cayuse, as to them, the doctor was the cause of death. The Whitmans and 11 other people were killed, and others taken hostage, sparking the Cayuse War. It ended when five Cayuse men were turned in for being the perpetrators (without clear evidence) and hanged. The visitor's center is built on the site of the mission. The center has a gift shop, a movie, and a small museum to explain the events that occurred here. Outside, there is a trail that brings you to a memorial obelisk, and meanders past the foundations of the mission buildings.

My visit here was awesome and I learned so much about a really pivotal (and sad) moment in history…read more The grounds are beautiful, the small museum was well done, the staff were excellent, and the history at the site is really fascinating. I will definitely be back again some day.

We've been members of Rotie for quite a while, and we finally made it to a spring release in Walla…read moreWalla. What a great experience this was, with a great group of wine club members and customers there. The team at Rotie did an awesome job of welcoming us, and providing us with samples of the wine they were releasing for the spring. They complimented this with fresh made smash burgers that were really good. It paired quite well with the Northern Red Blend. We also attended the Seafood Boil event that evening at their processing facility, what a great event that was too! What a great setting, what a great staff, and what a great experience.

I had recently watched The Brutalist, and when I arrived here, that was the first thing that came…read moreto mind with the exposed concrete and massive geometric forms. It's such a beautiful and unusual setting, with vineyards on one side and striking concrete structures and rocks on the other. The contrast is stark, yet the way everything is laid out is absolutely mesmerizing.The tasting room sits perched above the rocks and offers a stunning 360-degree view of the surroundings. The overall vibe is modern, airy, bright, and minimalist. Needless to say, I was just as smitten with the setting as I was with the wines. We happened to be the only party there at the time, so we were fortunate to receive a lot of attention and time from both sommeliers. We had a lovely conversation with them about wines, architecture, food, and all the different things to do in the area.It truly ended up being one of the best experiences in Walla Walla for both my husband and me. This was our first time (at least that I can remember) trying Rhône blends, and we were definitely in for a treat. Both of us loved learning more about the soil and the flavor profiles of the wines in the area and spent a wonderful few hours here before taking their recommendations to visit some of the other great wineries in town. Thank you to the whole team - you truly elevated our Walla Walla experience.

Umatilla Bridge - Yep

Umatilla Bridge

guessing that life on the plateau happens at a more comfortable pace than elsewhere since these…read morebridges look to be about a thousand years from being overburdened. still, weather happens so its effects must needs be addressed and a refit after 60 years of service does not seem unreasonable... the original south bound cantilevered steel truss structure opened to traffic in 1955 and after repaying the $10M construction bonds in 1974 the tolls were removed. the newer and less cool concrete arch carries northbound traffic and pedestrians since 1988. so blah blah 3400 feet long; blah blah 80 foot clearance northbound, 85 feet south; blah blah blah... but I think something fishy is going on under the bridge, there's a well appointed boat ramp and a marina of sorts down there and a few folks decided to just throw a line in from the bank...

Who can deny when about to cross a bridge--just about any old bridge-- being at least a little bit…read morescintillated by a sense of daring, and adventure, of limitless possibility and of going into the unknown? Except in this case, at least when heading North, you are forsaking prime Watermelon and state correctional facility territory (the only one in all of Oregon offering dialysis for inmates in renal failure), for the Tri-Cities of Eastern Washington. That's right, Tri - Cities, baby. When one dodgy Eastern WA burg simply isn't sufficiently boring! Bonus: Tri-Cities has the distinction of having the worst Chinese-American buffet I've ever had the pleasure to experience--- Although Super Buffet there in No Po is a newish upstart threatening to re-write the record books in that category.
