Multnomah Falls and other scenes from the road

Here are some pics from our last trip north from Denver. This is a pretty good picture of Multnomah falls near Portland- considering that it was taken by Kurt as he was driving by.

Also along the Columbia River Kurt took this picture of Mt. Hood.

The several days before this picture was taken there was a howling wind storm through the Columbia River gorge. As we were passing this tow truck was pulling the last of the overturned trucks out of the ditch.

And here we are parked nose to nose- The big Red Truck and the little black subaru. We purchased the subaru in Denver and then drove back to Washington- Kurt in the truck and Joanie in the subaru. We hope the subaru will make a reliable and economical car for driving in the snow and driving back and forth from the truck to home.

How about this for a fill-up. Yup- thats $806.73- enough to get the truck one way between Tacoma and Denver.

Here is a pretty shot of Mt Rainier from the Yakima Valley on Saturday June 7th.
