Today, because we promised to toil under the cover of darkness, we were let out mid-afternoon. Although it was the beginning of rush hour before they stopped talking, Mr. CP and I were on our way in traffic that the residents of our home metro area would not even comment on in their Traffic copters....and in a short time we were headed east along the Columbia River Valley. Absolutely breathtaking. In less time and fewer miles than I drive from home to my office, we were at the pass--lovely!
Amazingly very few seem to live very much beyond the city. Such a different way of life! We had to get gas along the way, and the little man came bounding out to pump it....not only willingly, but required by state law. So unlike our usual existence.
Love the mountains, love the little man pumping the gas, loved the views. But especially loved the waterfalls!
I can see what Lewis and Clark saw in the place!
