The first day of vacation was spent flying and losing 3 hours to time zone hopping leaving no time to blog. So I wrote about the first day on the second day. Now it is the third day and I need to write about the second day. It will be kind of like these fish swimming up the ladder at the Boneville Dam on the Columbia River. Tomorrow I’ll still be behind a day.I guess I’ll have to post about both days today by short changing the content of them.
Saturday we walked the mile and a half back to the airport to pick up our rental car. The Emerald Aisle was nearly bare. We had a choice of 2 Toyota Carollas, a Chevrolet Malibu and a couple Toyota Crew Cab Tundras. We took the Chevy. Drove a loop east along the Columbia River, to Cascade Locks, OR, then across the Bridge of the Gods and back to the hotel via the Washington state side. Lunch. Afternoon nap. Walk to dinner. Took an evening ride into downtown Portland on the light rail line and back.
