ReplyDeleteThank you Linda!
DeleteDid you hike up to the bridge that goes over the falls? This area is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteLisa, I did not (on either trip) - both times time was short. I would like to do that on a future trip.
DeleteThis brings back some wonderful memories. I think seeing it on a cloudy, blustery day is pretty powerful. Such an emotional response to the sense of place.
ReplyDeleteI agree!
DeleteSo beautiful and peaceful. On a day of such terrible news, this beauty comforts the heart. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI was in Portland about two months AFTER the Fling, and went to Multnomah Falls. We did the six mile hike. Three miles up and three miles down. Six falls to see on the way. It was spectacular.
ReplyDeleteThe waterfall is spectacular. I looked at your post from last year as well as this one and both are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous! I went to the Portland Fling this summer with my daughter (missed you and Michael!), and while I was touring gardens, she was off with friends. She and a friend visited the Falls one day, and she came back with some stunning photos. I wish we had stayed an extra day so I could have visited this area, too.
ReplyDeleteThat sightseeing drive was a favorite of mine after the Portland Fling last summer. It's good to see it all again in fall color.
