Omak, population of 4,800, is the largest city in Okanogan County. Omak is about 40 miles from Twisp, over the Loup Loup Pass, elevation 4,000 feet.
There's never much traffic and you can tootle along the winding road at your own pace. Amanda commutes to Omak at least once a week. It's an 90 mile round trip from Carlton, but a low stress drive, at least in the summer.
Anyway, Omak has most of the big stores which spares a 100 mile drive down to Wenatchee: Walmart, Home Depot, Safeway, North 40 and the all-important Marshalls.
Maya and I went shopping this morning to pick up a few things for their trip, then went out to lunch at The Bread Line Restaurant, a local favorite. That is not a burger. Maya is a dedicated vegetarian good for her. We had a great time.
