Astoria bridge...this was our view from where we ate lunch on the Columbia River. This is where the Goonies and Kindergarten Cop was filmed!
We went to Lewis and Clark National Historic Park right near Astoria, because that was Lewis and Clark's destination to the west before they turned back. I never thought of the troops (it was a military expedition) that Lewis and Clark led to be considered the best of the best...like Special Forces but they were! Good thing because they ran into the "White Bear" which was the Grizzly all over...they had yet to see a Polar Bear to really know what a white bear looks like!
CANON BEACH...with TIDAL POOLS full of Starfish and Sea Anemones!!!
This dog was the smartest thing Seth and I had ever seen...plus it does Yoga...like that downward Dog pose there! So Seth was watching it play fetch with the owner down the beach, it must have saw that we were watching and it ran directly at it...I was kind of intimidated, but then it dropped it stick in front of me and hunkered down into the downward dog pose waiting to pounce on the stick that I threw...so so so cute and smart!!! That is a Boarder Collie for you...Seth might want one now...and I JUST WANT A PUPPY!!!
There were masses upon masses of starfish EVERYWHERE you looked on the Canon Rock!!!
That Rock behind us was covered with muscles and barnacles...and if you got real close and just listened you could hear hissing sounds...CRAZY!!
It was cold and we needed Coffee...because we are Seattle people now and that is what you do up here!
This was a historic view point made so people who drove over this scenic route could enjoy a beautiful view of the Columbia River and have a bathroom break!
There were like 5 waterfalls all in a row on our way to Multnomah Falls...Debbie you would have loved this beautiful drive!
Multnomah Falls, Oregon
This is the 2nd tallest year round waterfall in the USA, and a very photographed waterfall as well!
