2009 Bill and Roz Visit

Back to Ed's Pictures | | Columbia Gorge Excursion

Monday, we headed for the Columbia River Gorge and looked at waterfalls. We had lunch at the Multnomah Falls lodge and did a little light hiking. When we got back home, Bill and I headed out to the sailing club and raced with the racing group.
