The Dalles, July 15, 2023 - Locals were getting after it early this morning in a move to beat the heat that will soon be lifted from the street.

We found Eric Bartholomew finishing his 12-mile circuit ride on his bicycle pumping up E. 16th Street after a ride along the cool Columbia. The 65-year-old from The Dalles said mornings were good for taking advantage of lower temperatures and also beating down that second adversary - the wind, a rough opponent to push against.

Kathy Sandoz is all of summer at The Dalles Farmer’s Market. Her abundant table called out a half block away.

Just a couple of blocks away, The Dalles Farmers Market was plump with apricots.

From a distance, you would have sworn they were peaches, but it’s too early for peaches.

Kathy Sandoz was selling the mammoth fruit for $6 a box. And word must have gotten out as many locals could be seen stopping in and or walking to the market.

The Market is located at City Park at 5th and Union streets and is open until 1 p.m. today, July 15.
