There is a replica of Stonehenge as it is believed to have been before it started collapsing in the middle of the desert on Washington State Highway 14 on the bluffs in sight of the Columbia River near Maryhill, Washington. Be warned, it's marked as a World War memorial is not visible from the highway. GET GAS in The Dalles[1] or Walla Walla (I think that's the next closest town), I don't recall any gas stations outside of larger towns. There's a small convienence store within earshot of the monument, but if you want a good lunch, better bring your own. It's amazingly under-travelled since it's out in the middle of the desert; I'm told you pretty much have to have grown up in the northwest to have any appreciation for that desert as a vacation destination. [1] Pronounced "The D-al-s" not "Dallas." Considering both The Dalles and Dallas, Oregon have good fishing and lots of lost fishermen, odds are the locals will assume you really do mean Dallas and give you directions involving I-5 and the East Salem Freeway, on the other side of the state automatically, whether or not you're there to fish. I've seen it happen. - -- .''`.
