You got the right side of the peninsula! Not the Hamma Hamma though.

:cheers: Haha, gotta love process of elimination! You got it. The photo is taken right at the end of the road where it is all washed out. Thought about making that a clue but figured it would make it far too easy. Alrighty, you're up!

All right, I'm going to change it up a tad and throw in a saltwater offering. Name the Bay, this should be quite easy.

I knew it wouldn't take long. A fair number of fish have been caught near that buoy.

Close enough for me to keep the game moving along. It was taken from the I-90 crossing of the Columbia(Wanapum Lake) at Vantage looking south on Thanksgiving morning. Kudos to my nephew Thad for capturing that shot while I drove along at 55 mph. You got something to post Bentrod , put it up.

It was the hazy Gap in the background and the road angling up the hill on the left side of the photo that reminded me of that area.

Ok, had to borrow a picture to post, so thanks to (post bloggers site here) for the photo. I'll cite the source after the location is guessed.....lol.
