Multnomah Falls with Dad on Mom's Birthday - missing Mom!

Spur of the moment we decided to hike to the top of Multnomah Falls!  Elsi did amazingly well, despite dad's failure to recommend better hiking shoes!  The hike is 1-1/4 miles up a very steep path, with an observation deck at the top.  Needless to say we didn't pass many 7 year-olds on that 2-1.2 mile jaunt!  The photos of the two of us were taken at the tip-top of the falls, as was the bottom-right photo of Elsi.  There were many cool things to check out along the way, like a giant maple leaf (dad thinks it's a vine maple?), a mini-cave, and a giant old-growth hollow tree stump.  Such a great kid.  So wishful for her future...

Happy Birthday, Mom!
