My aunt and cousin visited Thursday and we had an awesome time going up to the Vista House and then continued down the road to Multnomah Falls. While we were visiting Friday evening I realized that a laugh is genetic, at least mine is! My cousin and I have amazingly similar laughs! And I have been told quite a few times that I have a unique laugh. Even more interesting is there were several times we said things at the same time. And this is a cousin I have been around very little. Our family's visited when she was quite young but not since then. It's amazing how strong genetics can be! If only she didn't live so far away!! It's was wonderful to get to know her a little bit and to see my aunt face to face again!

The Vista House in the Columbia Gorge. The front steps of this place will get hurricane force winds in the winter time due to east winds coming through the Gorge. It's gotten to 120 mph I believe.

Multnomah Falls- It's been a very, very dry year and there's not much water.
