Woah, can't ship to WA, OR, ID or Calif. Phoey.
I've never been up in the area of Yakima. Maybe decades ago on the back of a motorcycle. Camped in Kennewick a bunch of years ago.
Correct me if I am wrong, you are in Oregon near Pendleton?The vineyards are newer. Only last few decades. Columbia Crest was the first in the 80s I believe. Kennewick is huge now compared to how it was when I graduated in the early 90s. Them improving I-82 from Kennewick to Umatilla in the 80s means it's only 21 freeway miles to the Costco.
Hermiston has grown. Umatilla is stagnant on size because it's surrounded mostly by wildlife refuge. And lots of basalt. The population doubling since I graduated is only because they built a prison out there and those people count towards the population.

Only asking because recognized Umatilla and Herminston names.
