Mt. St. Helens
A cloudy day, but no rain.
Lou had told me that we wouldn't be able to see it - and he was right.
But we learned a lot at the Information Centers.
This is what we were supposed to see.
And this is what we did see.
This was the view that the tour saw last year.
Also their bus broke down and they had to sit in 90* heat for 4 hrs.
I'll take the cooler weather.
This one is probably my fav--
Before, During, After.
(nice postcards!😀)
Another day,
visit to Mt. Hood
We have been fortunate weather wise. Forecasted rain days are cloudy,
and others are beautiful with bright skies and few clouds.
Spring skiing? (nope, its summer) enjoyed by many.
The architecture of the Timberline Lodge emulates the slope of the mountain.
A lovely panoramic view for lunch.
And a view of Mt. Jefferson to the south.
The Cascade Range is amazing. A long line of volcanoes all the way down into California.
The ride down the mountain is on "The Mt. Hood Fruit Loop"
The cherries are delicious as well as various ciders.
A very beautiful day indeed!
