A weekend away

Dave had Friday off, since he worked the previous weekend, so we escaped and went on a weekend trip. We left Friday morning and got as far as Portland. We stopped at Multnomah Falls and had a wonderful time looking at the falls, hiking in the beautiful greenery, and spending time together.



We stopped on the way at a view point, and as I looked out my window at this view, Dave and the boys looked out the other windows and stared in amazement at this view.We got to Troutdale and walked around the outlet malls, bought some new frying pans (yipee!!) and got the boys new jammies and shirts. Then we ate at Burger Ville in Gresham, and then found our hotel. We were staying at Days Inn, and I wrote down the address to the wrong one, so that gal called the other Days Inn, confirmed our reservation and then told us how to get there, but somehow she didn't know her lefts from rights, and told us to turn left when we should have turned right, and right when we should have turned right, so we had a nice tour of that whole side of town. When we finally arrived we had a fun time in the swimming pool, then relaxing and eating popcorn in our room. Everyone slept well, which was awesome!!
