More great places.....Saturday, April 26, 2008


Saturday, April 26, 2008


We woke up in the Walmart Supercenter in Troutdale, OR. and left about 10 am heading east for Multnomah Falls. What a glorious sight!
We spent about 45 minutes there then headed back into Portland and the Lloyd Center where we hopped on the MAX(light rapid transit) for downtown. What a great transit system they have here in Portland! So handy & convenient (and free)! We made our way to the Multnomah Athletic Club and were treated to a tour by the manager. This will be the site for the 2009 World Handball Championships in October of next year. A truly amazing facility!
After wandering about downtown, we ended up at the Portland Saturday Market, a regular circus of fast-food and humanity! It was overwhelming to say the least and we barely made it on to the MAX and back to the place where Kingsley was waiting for us.
We left Portland heading north about 4:30 pm and are staying at the Seacrest State Park right across from the Mt. St. Helen’s Interpretative Center. The air is divine!! We are very comfortable tonight!......Janet

What a great photo! I think Dorothy really looks like a "langfeldt" girl. I'm so glad to hear the rain has stopped and you're getting out and about. Thanks for the photo gallery of the air museum. Donny's gone to bed but he'll have a chance to check them out tomorrow. Early Thursday morning he is headed to Victoria with the cadet marching band for a tri-service tattoo at CFB Esquimalt. It'll be a long bus ride but he's not worried about it. I'm sure they'll all have loads of fun.
Take care,
Karen
