The weather is forecast to turn cold & rainy for the next week or so, so we took advantage of the last day of sunshine to go on a hike on the Oregon side of the Columbia Gorge. The route wound its way from Horsetail Falls to Triple Falls and on up the Oneonta Trail for about 4 miles. Pretty steep in places but our feet, legs and knees seemed to hold up pretty well - a good sign considering all of the walking we plan to do on the NZ trip in November.
Looking forward to our trip to Valdosta next Tuesday to visit the Grand Babies (and their parents) for a couple of weeks.
Here are a couple of photos from the hike. The trees have just started to turn, although it was interesting to note that the most colorful plant in the forest was the Poison Oak - usually difficult to pick out from the surrounding plants but now quite obvious thanks to having turned various shades of gold & red.
