Busy weekend
My doctor friend's in town this weekend, and so far we're keeping crazy busy.
Yesterday we hiked 6 or 7 (or more, I'm honestly not sure) miles around and above Multnohmah Falls. It was an intense hike, with lots of steep switchbacks up and down and excellent views of a whole bunch of waterfalls and the Columbia River Gorge.
Then we headed out to a party, where there were local bands and incredibly awesome tribal style belly dancers, all in a Grinnellian's living room. Just about everyone there was super smart and friendly. The keg was filled with a high quality Portland brew (though I limited myself to half a cup, 'cause I was driving).
Today we're thinking about driving up past Woodland to the Ape Caves, though I'm wondering is we should take advantage of surprisingly warm weather and head to the beach instead. First, though, I need to get Mister to a vet to follow-up on his recent urinary tract problems.

I wonder if you remember the first time we hiked the Billy Goat Trail? I think it was the six of us, me, you and the boys, and one bottle of water between us! Thought I was going to die! I need to start walking again, though maybe not the Billy Goat Trail. At least not for a while.
Love you, Mom
