Weekend in Oregon

Last weekend we spent a few days traveling around Oregon. The first night we went to Portland, stayed at hotel and spent the evening swimming in the pool.
Outside our hotel on Friday morning. We were ready to begin the day traveling around and looking at waterfalls.

This is the Vista House and the Columbia Gorge in the backround. I wish it had been a warmer and clearer but I hardly rained so that was really nice.


Steve showed me how to take pamorama pictures with my camera. They turn out great. The camera sews the three pictures together and thy turn out like this.














Latourell Falls was amazing. I have never been so clase to a waterfall before. We could have walked right into it but we didn't...it was pretty cold.






Multnomah Falls.
















Seaside beach was COLD. It was a little rainy too and windy so Steve set up the tripod , took a couple pictures and we got out of there. We spent a little time looking around the shops in Seaside and then headed over to Astoria.




















No caption needed:)










My new hair color.

























This was in Astoria. It's called the Column but I can't remember why it's there. Normally people can walk up to the top but the stairs were closed because they were fixing them.

too bad you couldn't go up in the Column, you get a great view, did you just park onn the side of the road and walk to the waterfall?? We need to do that.

We went to a lot of waterfalls and they all have places to park.
