It was a long drive for a short hike. The attraction, four waterfalls in a 2 mile hike. I was out with Lori, Jeanette, and Marilyn for this expiratory hike. After the hike we went to Calapooia Brewing for lunch.
Forest Park Fire Lane 1 hike
I got out to hike some trails in Forest Park that I had not been on in many years. Part of the exploring was to see where a couple of fire lanes came on at. By the numbers – 11 miles, 2450 ft. total elevation gain and on trail for 5 hours.
Past Tense
I got bit by the photography bug when I was in high school. I use to tell people I was addicted to photography and if I went a few days without taking a photograph I would have withdrawal symptoms. Most of the photography I have done for the last 40 years has been done to fulfill other peoples photos needs. Towards the end of my career as a commercial photographer I did get burnt out. Now that I am retired look forward to trying to find the passion I had when I started in my own work.
