The girls had a 4 day weekend from school, so we headed west....
the Columbia River
barges headed upstream
Mt Hood
Multonomah Falls
stopped at a huge space and airplane museum, it houses the Spruce Goose
my favourite plane of all, can't imagine how the gunners in the belly and the nose must have felt...they were very brave for sure!!
my Yankee kids
first time ever seeing the ocean
and its a little chilly in October!!
as close to a shark as I ever want to get!!
the jellies were very cool to watch
a created tidal pool with lots of touching allowed
liked the name of this boat :wink:
some free loaders that are very noisy!
looking up at a lighthouse's stairwell, I climbed up with no problem, but didn't dare look down for a picture!
there is a cave that all these sea lions spend the winter months in, but the weather hadn't gotten bad enough yet, so they were hanging out on this cliff and below in the water
