Where we were

This is a series of pictures that catalogs where we went while we had visitors

(Carla likes group pictures)


We were....



...in Portland.




...at the fountain.



...in Renee's Studio.



...on the waterfront.



...at cannon beach on the coast.



...downtown.



...at some viewpoint thingy (Vista house).



...at the top of Multnomah Falls.



...at the Pittock mansion.



...next to a small Christmas tree.



...in front of a papoose at the Saturday market.



...at the rose garden.



...in our kitchen, eating Escape From New York pizza.

Multnomah Falls



Apparently the 2nd largest waterfall in the US. We decided that hiking up to the very top would be a good idea.



Proof that we were there.



Ooooooo.



This picture shows you how big the falls actually is (people on path to the left)



The hike u



Renee tried to hang from a branch. Emphasis on "tried."



This is about half way up.



Olive wasn't so sure about the river.



Climbing around on the river before the falls was a blast!



Carla almost killed herself by running across loose branches



Here's a view from the very top! Look closely and you can see the bridge from the beginning.

Welcome Carla & Mike!


Renee's sister and her husband came to visit this week - this is our senior picture.



The ladies show off in our courtyard.



The boys act natural.

But we forgot Olive!


Oh, there we go.
