Hike to Horsetail Falls

Hike to Horsetail Falls

This is a waterfall behind Multnomah Falls.

These are the old pictures...

These are the pics that were up on the blog already. I made them lighter so people can see them. Enjoy!

Way Fayer Resort, Multnomah Falls, Wakeena Falls

The pictures below are from our weekend getaway with Kirstin and Todd to The Way Fayer Resort on the McKenzie River. Also featured are Multnomah Falls and McKenzie Falls which we visited both during Jon's Mom's visit and last weekend.

Jon's Lillies

Just one of the beautiful Lillies (my favorite!) that Jon gave to me for Valentine's Day. He's such a sweetie!

Little Streams

More beautiful streams of water along the Wakeena Falls Trail.

Fairy Falls

Wakeena Falls Trail (Close to Multnomah Falls)

This is just one of the many little streams of water you see as you ascend the Wakeena Falls Trail. We were hiking to Fairy Falls. Next time we want to do the entire trail up to Larch Mountain and back down to Multnomah Falls.

More mossy trees

Follow the leader

Jon says....follow me...I was once a boy scout!!

On the bridge along the McKenzie River Trail.

Mossy Branches

With so much water in the air, many of these photographs are full of mossy branches. It makes for cool pictures.

Frozen

Along the McKenzie river hike, small frozen ponds exist. Here you see a small river that is still full of ice in February.

New Pictures Added

To see the "new" February pictures added, click on the "February 2006" under the archives and scroll down past these "missed beauties" photos. Since they were all added recently they are under the same month. Just keep scrolling...the new pics begin with an uprooted Redwood tree.

missed beauties

After I finished adding new items to the blog (check out the February link under the "archives" section) I noticed that we were missing a few eclectic beauties from the blog. Normally the blog pics come from my digital camera but I forgot all about Jon's slides that we had made into electronic files. We would be remiss were we not to include these...random or not. Since they ARE an eclectic mix I will tell you where the heck they came from.

Enjoy!

look at me

Monkey Face at Smith Rock. This picture is cool because I hiked out to the rock just before it. Look closely in the lower left corner of the picture standing up on the leftmost rock-- there's me waving!! :) You might have to click on the picture to open it larger in a new browser window.

paulina falls

Jon's gorgeous picture of Paulina Falls. He slowed down the shutter speed to make the falls appear blurry. Nice touch with the rainbow. We liked this one so much that it's hanging in our bedroom.

sunset

Jon captured this sunset somewhere along the coast 2 years ago with his Aunt. He'll have to help me finish this caption!
