Easter Weekend Hike

Since Kent and I don't celebrate Easter we have gone on the same drive through the Yakima Canyon each Easter weekend for over 10 years. We usually look at the weather and go on whichever Easter weekend day looks better. This year it was Saturday.







After a burger at Miners in Yakima we headed down to the Columbia River Gorge to one of our favorite stops along the way - The Mary Hill Museum.



























The highlight of the day was a short hike to the top of McCall Point. Beautiful views of the Columbia River, Mt. Adams and Mt. Hood.



























From there we headed to Hood River - one of our favorite towns along the river.



Dinner in Vancouver and then home. Called our friend Barb who lives in Portland but she was busy.

Easter Sunday will be busy - I've got a 16 mile run to do tomorrow and I have to pack for a business trip to DC that I leave for on Monday.

Have a great Easter everyone!

  1. Beautiful way to celebrate Easter by enjoying the beauty of creation. Much better than eggs and bunnies.
