My grandfather owned the newspaper there, The Dalles Chronicle.

Two photographs hang in my office from that town. One is of Celilo Falls (linked), which is now underwater thanks to a hydroelectric project. The other is of my father and uncle as boys with a local Indian chief and his family, all in full regalia, who came into town to thank my grandfather for publishing an editorial favorable to their tribe.
