Our old teammate, Jess, came to visit us this weekend, and we had a great time showing her around Portland a little bit. The weather was kind of yucky, but we still had some fun catching up. On Friday we celebrated our 5th anniversary with her and Connor, mmmm....Cuban food. Then Saturday we slept in and went in to downtown Portland. We explored the Saturday Arts Market, hiked a long way for some cupcakes (it was worth it) and of course, took in REI. Then we headed home and made pizza and had a relaxed evening at home.
Sunday we decided to ignore the weather and head into the Columbia River Gorge to see some sights. We started at Vista House, a great place to see the valley, then headed out to Multnomah Falls. We did a nice hike there, and finished just in time for the rains to start coming down. We had planned to also hike at another falls in the area, and see Beacon Rock, but it was torrential downpours, so instead we drove home and spent some time on the couch for the afternoon. Then things cleared up so we tried out a local putt putt course. It was a great day other than the weather.
Monday she was back off to Minnesota, so it was a short trip, but definitely relaxing and fun! It seems that the blog sight is having issues with uploading pics, so we'll try again later!
