Who knew (not I) that there is such a thing as a “High Desert”. Well Kennewick Washington is in the high desert. With the exception of the area fed by irrigation, the surrounding area is dry. I mean really dry. It is Hot. This week has been high 90’s to 100 degrees. I will add that for the most part the humidity is low so it is somewhat comfortable. Also thank goodness for air conditioning.
The area is called the Tri-cities as it consists of Kennewick, Pasco, and Richland Washington. Actually Kiplinger Magazine listed it as one of their recommended location for retirees to relocate. There is lots of new housing, new roads, shopping centers, restaurants, etc… for retirees.
The cities are located at the bottom of the Snake River where it dumps into the Columbia River
