Washington and Oregon, The Columbia River

Often, when we are in Portland, Oregon - which is about three months a year -we go out along the Columbia River to see the waterfalls, have lunch at the foot of Multnomah Falls, and sometimes visit the fisheries. The picture above is taken from an old, albeit beautiful, lookout at the crest of the southern hill. When in Portland or Vancouver, Washington, it is worth going east as well as west to Astoria.
