This was the view I had on Wednesday morning at the beach, looking at Cape Foulweather.
On the way home a stop was made at the Charburger restaurant in Cascade Locks. My family has been dining there for some 50 years. The view of the Columbia River as it slips through the jaws of the Cascade mountains is superb. This shot shows the Bridge of the Gods which connects Oregon with Washington.
This is a shot from the same spot just looking to the east. There is a stern wheeler that takes folks on tours in the area..
And this is home - I arrived just in time to catch the sunset over the Three Sisters. All of this and more in just one day - I am one very fortunate soul!!

I agree that living in the Pacific Northwest is an incredible thing.
So many exciting environments. I love the ruggedness of the Oregon coast. We like to go to Siletz Bay in our airplane to camp on the strip and walk across Highway 101 to the Sidedoor Cafe. They always have great food. What we save on lodging we splurge on for food. A long time ago we landed at Cascade Locks. I remember the strip was so narrow that it looked almost impossible to stay in the center. I don't know if it's still there. Many of those little strips disappear. - Margy
