February Gorge

IMG_5836Another chance to get out of the house is a good thing to take advantage of. We asked Magnus if he wanted to go see some waterfalls and he said, “yes.” So, another day in the Gorge. By the time we got there though, both boys had fallen asleep.

We did a quick stop by Mist Falls and then on to Multnomah. Dana wanted to see the broken bridge up close:

We also stopped at Eagle Creek so Ruth could find some smooth, round river rocks. Magnus had fun throwing rocks in the water.

Since Magnus had missed the first waterfall stops, we went to Starvation Falls. He was very excited and ran around a lot.

We also wanted to see where a giant landslide had happened on Feb. 15 that shutdown the freeway with about 400 dump truck loads of rock and dirt. This is the hillside that had given way.
