Fall in the NW

We anticipate this being one of the last sunny warmish days here in the NW before the rain sets in. So we headed out to Mt. Hood for a 4 mile hike, apple picking, and wine tasting. It was wonderful. Eric's friend, Milan also joined us as he needed to get out of his house and stop working every weekend. Minnie joined us as well and led the pack on the trail.


This was one of the clearings along the trail. I've really gotten my endurance back and strength back and am proud to say that Minnie and I outpaced Eric on the trail - and it was a hard one as well.



We got to do apple tastings as well as Heirloom Orchards had over 25 varieties of apples to choose from. I picked some tarter apples good for pies.

We ended it meeting back in Portland for some good Thai food.
