Neither of us had ever been east of Umatilla before, so it was new territory. I knew nothing about Baker City, but it turns out to be a historic mining town with cute brick buildings and good coffee. <\/p>\n<p>We stayed at the restored <a href=\"http:\/\/www.geisergrand.com\/\">Geiser Grand Hotel,<\/a> which is supposedly haunted (we did not run into any ghosts). Also interesting is the fact that some Japanese television show (Fuji Television&#8217;s &#8220;unbelievable&#8221;) is apparently smitten with the Geiser Grand. The show already filmed two episodes at the Geiser Grand and is doing a live feed on NY&#8217;s Eve. Who would have thought?<\/p>\n<p>We also enjoyed some snowplay at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.anthonylakes.com\/pin\/\">Anthony Lakes Ski Area<\/a>. It wasn&#8217;t crowded at all, and the snow was like powder. Peter went cross-country skiing, and I tried snowshoeing for the first time. <\/p>\n<p>We had a great time, and I would definitely go back, which is saying a lot, since I don&#8217;t generally care for the cold or snow!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We had a mini getaway right after Christmas and took off to Baker City in eastern Oregon.
