With all this talk about “staycations” a term used in reference to the high costs of just about everything and the more reasonable way to travel being on staying closer to home. Have you heard it? It is every where from the radio to the news, even sitcoms are joking about.
Where are you traveling to? Cause let me tell you from Seattle to Portland we are going to be thee destination to retreat to!
We got some beautiful sunshine yesterday and though it is a bit hazy this morning I think today is going to turn out just as breath taking. The frost is appearing towards the higher elevations and when that morning sun crest and shoots off all the random colors that are out there, it truly is breath taking.
Tomorrow is opening night of the First Annual Hidden Treasures Alpaca Auction. This event is being held down at the Skamania County Fairgrounds until Sunday. Check out Skamania.org for more information!
Also make sure not to miss the North Bonneville, Washington Woodland Fairy Pumpkin Hunt this Saturday from 11:00 am – 3:00 pm.

Well it is a little grey out there and the rain has continued to fall as the days turn to nights and the nights to days. We had a bustling weekend that has continued into this fine Monday morning.
This weekend catered to Hopsfest in Hood River, Oregon and with that came a wide variety of beer, wine and good company. Rain aside the streets of Hood River were full.

Hey you city folk! Get out here and enjoy some of natures best, while the weather is supreme! We are a short and glorious drive from the vancouver/portland metro area and we can not stress enough how every activity & recreation is all right here in the gorge.
Bring the family and enjoy a wonderful hike or even a bit of berry picking. Need a little more entertainment? Or can’t get out of town?
Today Portland art museum is hosting “Wild Beauty” - Photographs of the Columbia River Gorge from 1867-1957 at Portland Art Museum. This could at least entice you to come see your yourself.
What’s you favorite thing to do in the Gorge?
