Took Forest Road 44 (paved all the way) from SR 35 to Dufur. Haven't been
on that road for quite a few years. Lots of forest fires all over so thought
this would be a nice change.


Last Fall we took a ride on the Mount Hood Railroad. At the stop
in Parkdale the smell of BBQ filled the air. It was one of those "we've got
to come back and check this place out" moments. So here we are.... and well
worth the trip.

Apple Valley BBQ posts their specials on their Facebook page and many of the
items sound yummy. But for a first visitor I'd recommend the pulled pork BBQ.
I had cornbread and fries for sides and both were excellent. You get a generous
size meal at a reasonable price here.

I think we'll be adding a Parkdale Season Opener to our future ride schedule!

Dufur is a city in Wasco County, Oregon, United States. The population was 604
at the 2010 census. It is a farming community where wheat, tree fruit, and grapes
are important crops.

Dufur was incorporated on February 10, 1893, and named after Andrew Dufur and his
brother Enoch Burnham Dufur. In 1859 they began raising stock on 600 acres (2.4 km2)
of land located where the city now stands.

On the second full weekend of August, Dufur holds its annual Threshing Bee, a
harvest festival celebrating the local agricultural economy. The festival includes
demonstrations of horse-drawn harvesting equipment, and a steam tractor that powers
a belt-driven threshing machine.
