Winter Gorge and Baby Yoda

Greetings from Oregon.. a wintery cold place right now.  I volunteered at Multnomah Falls with my sister Denise yesterday afternoon.  We had a real cultural melting pot of visitors which I just love.  A world where people from all corners living together in peace is one of my hopes for the future of our planet.  I forgot to take a photo of the lodge and the falls.. so we snapped this one of the Columbia River as we left the Historic Highway and entered the freeway to home.

There is a rest stop/viewpoint before we exit the freeway to home.  We only live about 15 minutes away from the falls.  It's cold here, about 40 degrees F.  But we were pleased to have sunshine.  This photo is taken upriver, heading East.  Do you see Rooster Rock and a tiny Vista House on Crown Point?

There it is, up on the bluff, 733 feet up there!  Do you see the snow on Larch Mountain?

The sky was on fire on our way home.. we should have driven up to Vista House to get a shot of the sunset, but our two grandsons were here so we wanted to get home to them.  

I do love the pretty barn Dayle built for us when we moved to this house.  We had a herd of Nubian Dairy Goats that needed a good barn.  We had a milking room with 2 goat stands for milking the girls.  I wanted my children to have healthy milk from our own farm which we did for at least 15 some years.

I've been hearing about Baby Yoda and seeing his image on social media so I went to the experts to find out about him.. my grandsons.  According to Google... 

"The Child, colloquially referred to as "Baby Yoda" by fans and the media, is a fictional character from the Star Wars Disney+ original television series The Mandalorian. He is of the same alien species as Jedi Master Yoda, a popular character from the original trilogy and prequel trilogy of Star Wars films."

So, we found our way to the Disney + channel and began watching several episodes of The Mandalorian.  We found it quite good and I became quite fond of the Baby Yoda.  :-)

Here he is using his powers to save his savior.  

I mean.. look at that face and those ears!  LOL!  Have you heard about him?

Our grandsons asked to come stay with us yesterday and brought their X-Box which they hooked up in the attic and are using the 2 bean bag chairs we got for them.  They decided to spend another night.  Dayle took them up to the school to play basketball with their 2 new BBs we got for them for Christmas.  Dayle played with them and showed them his shooting style.

We're enjoying the peaceful days post Christmas.  How are you spending your days?  ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
