Bridge of the Gods

  Today we'll be travelling along the Columbia River Gorge. If you ever find yourself in the PNW, it is a must to travel this highly scenic route. (I would have posted pics of Multnomah Falls, but couldn't find the really good ones I have of it. One of these days I want to dine at the Multnomah Falls Lodge.)

In the shadow of the bridge on the Oregon side is a quaint restaurant called Char-Burger. No, the burger does not come to you looking like a round piece of charcoal. However, it does taste like it's been grilled over charcoals, like a backyard barbecue. Inside you can sit and gaze at the river and watch people doing water-type activities.

If you travel further up the Gorge into the desert region you can visit a replica of Stonehenge. We went there for my 29th birthday. The Henge isn't built to scale. It is perched atop a cliff and you can look out and see for miles.

On our way home today we're going to dine at my favorite place on earth to eat a cheeseburger: Fuddruckers. Our nearest one is in Portland. I don't put any condiments on the bun because the meat is so flavorful that it needs to shine on its own. I add just a little onion and lettuce to give it a little crunch.

I anticipate we'll be back late tonight, so until tomorrow!
