Volunteering Rocks

I spent the afternoon volunteering at Multnomah Falls with my best friend from 7th grade - Shirley.  We greeted people visiting from around the country and the globe.  They all wanted advice on what to see, which way to go, and.. where the restroom was.  :-) Thataway.. ← This is the lodge and if you look on the bottom left you see an open door, that is the Visitors Center.

As you can see, the falls are skimpy this time of year.  But one very cool thing is it is fed by a spring so it never dries up.  In the winter and spring it roars with rain and snow-melt waters.

I can't tell you how many people came into the VC and asked us how to find the falls.  Umm.  It's right out there, just walk up that way, pointing right.  Don't people look up when they get there?  It's hard to miss.  :-)

Look what visited us the other day?  This is a photo I found on the internet, not mine, it's a Western Tanager.  Kristi saw it and told us about it, she says she sees them every year.

A fun meme I saw on Facebook.  :-)  I think my skills at buying yarn definitely exceed my talent at using it.  

The sunny skies are back.  I foresee some time on the deck watching the koi swim in the pond this weekend.  Our son Travis and wife Kristi are coming over this evening and she is bringing the things to make lasagna.  Our son is going to be tidying up the boat for a fishing trip on Sunday.  Dayle is going too. They are going off-shore into the Pacific Ocean in hopes of catching Coho Salmon.  More on that on my Monday post.

Have a super weekend!!  ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
