Gorge before the heat and smoke

The final day we spent with our Texas visitors was in the Columbia River Gorge.

Birthday Bits

Bits of birthday happenings that didn’t fit into the other two posts.

We had birthday reservations at a historic hotel.

Mt. Hood Cherokees went on another field trip to see Tsagaglalal.

At Eagle Creek, our indefatigable Mother Nature reminds us that she is more powerful than we could ever hope to be.

My Cherokee group had the opportunity to see Columbia River pictographs that were formerly lost to view by mere human eyes.

Sandy came to pick me up and take me to the coast so we could have fun and catch up on each others’ news.

This is my fourth blog post about this southern Washington landmark and outstanding hiking trail.

By lucky chance, I saw the Christmas ships as they sailed past my little town on Friday night.

It’s convenient when family members live in the same town.
