Mt. Hood
|
My first view of Mt. Hood was on the approach into Portland from the
plane. |
|
Mt. St. Helens
|
When I got in on Wednesday, we drove around a bit in Portland. Here
we went up to Council
Crest to see the views of the mountains. |
|
Mt. Hood (again)
|
Circling around, you could also see Mt. Hood from up there. |
|
Rose Garden
|
Portland is the "Rose City", and they have a Rose Garden to prove it.
|
|
Coast
|
On Thursday (after I had been up a long time Wednesday including a trip
to see The Fellowship of the Ring), we drove out to the coast to avoid the
90-degree heat in the city. |
|
Beach
|
We went up to a scenic viewpoint before actually going to the beach.
This is looking south towards Cannon Beach |
|
Ocean
|
Still from our viewpoint, looking west over the Pacific. |
|
Ledge
|
We took a little trail that led closer to the water. |
|
Sea Stacks
|
Here's another picture of the sea stacks from a couple pictures ago.

|
Haystack Rock
|
Next we went down to the beach and saw the (famous)
Haystack Rock. |
