a week ago in The Gorge

 

 

 Last week and the week before, we had below freezing temperatures and some of the waterfalls in The Gorge froze up, and I drove out to see them.  I drove out to Multnomah Falls on the freeway but came back to Portland on The Old Highway, and made my last stop of the day at Chanticlear Point, the site of Women’s Forum overlook:

Usually, I walk out to the far wall of the overlook and take pictures of The Gorge, but I thought I’d get a picture of what the overlook looks like.

Stepping past the telescopes, I see:

Any vampire fans out there?  This B&B was used in that first movie:

Here at Women’s Forum it was 26 degrees and it was very windy – cold!

I used this occaision to take my picture:

The gorge wasn’t the only thing looking frosty….

Looking towards the road home, I saw the sun fading from the sky and headed home with over 200 new pictures:

I love that fourth picture, the one of the river in sunlight. I also like seeing a pic of you! I am not so brave and rarely post pics of myself.

Great pictures! I really like that first one.
