Exploring the Columbia River
Multnomah Falls
We made it to the bridge
and the viewing area at the bottom looks pretty small.
Lou lived in this area but had not been here.
Beacon Rock
Lewis and Clark camped here.
The lookout is the first scenic highway in the US, and hugs the banks of the Columbia River. Built in the 1920's and was an engineering marvel at the time.
This rock is a tribute to Sam Hill,
The developer of the Historic Columbia River Highway in Oregon.
The brass plate honoring the Lewis and Clark expedition
and the era of steamship travel and shipping.

The Fish Hatchery
Sturgeon
They can get to be hundreds of pounds which is why we viewed the fishermen working so hard to catch one.
Good to see a few bright spots of color in the overcast days we have had.
It smells wonderful.
Next adventures are Mt. St. Helens and Mt. Hood.
Love your comments.
If you add your name it isn't 'anonymous'.😀
