Gorge Hike: Wahkeena Falls to Multnomah Falls

We got up early on Father’s Day and took a hike in the Gorge. It was a beautiful day for a hike.  Plus, there were Father’s Day hikers to spot.

The plan was to start at Wahkeena Falls, hike up and across and come down by Multnomah Falls.  It was a good plan.IMG_5580

Either J or C, or possibly both, had recently been here.IMG_5592

Sadly, my camera battery was near death and I didn’t have the spare with me, so pictures were rationed.

Matt wanted me to take this picture.  I obliged.IMG_5593

There were a million people at Multnomah Falls.  There were a million people celebrating Father’s Day.  Here’s one family right here.IMG_5595

It was a good hike and my legs were uniformly sore for the next few days.

Three sentence movie reviews: Away from Her

away_from_her

A story of Alzheimer’s Disease and how the progression affects loved ones.  It also had a lot to say about long-term relationships and how love changes over time.  Julie Christie’s best actress acting nomination was well-deserved.

Cost:  free via work-sponsored Netflix
Where watched: at home.
