Day of Adventure Through the Gorge

 which left Kari as the only "kid" at home with us for the weekend. 

Not often we get a day with just our eldest! She’s the only one home this weekend (Aubrey in Mexico, Joel was in Riverside, CA, for Rebecca's brother's wedding, and Grant on his 8th grade trip with Brennan and Grandpa and Grandma), and we convinced her to join us for a little adventure. We stopped at Wyeth Trailhead and hiked back to Gorton Creek Falls. She climbed all the way up to the waterfall. We made it partway and decided it would be best to stop before we endangered ourselves any more. It was a good decision. Such a fun day—gorgeous weather and great company! We ate outside on the railing at Solstice Pizza, walked along the waterfront, watched the wind surfers, Greg and Kari got coffee, and then we drove to Hope Ranch Lavender farm, took a few photos, enjoyed the ambience, and then headed home with a short stop for ice cream in Cascade Locks. I took a glorious nap when we got home, too. I love summer.
