Weekend of Camping

Karen walking on water.


One of the small Falls leading up to the big one.


Powerful water


Our destination, Toketee Falls


Another shot. If you click on the picture you can see a tree growing out of the rocks on the left side of the Falls


Better shot of the tree


Bob and Dolly


Fern-like trees along the trail


It was about a half mile walk to get back to the Falls. Lots of steps and elevation changes


I think these rock figures must be Indian signs



This was a VERY tiny flower. Fun to work with the macro setting.


The "End of the Trail".
Dolly is playing "Bear in the hollow tree"


This large aqueduct is moving water to a generator at a hydro-electric plant


Bob the poser.


We found sever leaks in the big pipe



Little Dutch Boy? Naw, just Karen trying to plug a hole


Another Indian sign post



Three fire pictures from Saturday night. We wanted to use up all the wood and enjoy the coals.


It's coming along good



VERY hot fire.


Pitch dark outside, this is light from the fire on Minnie. Took a 10 second timed exposure to get this.


Moon coming out through the clouds and over the trees. It was a lot prettier than this picture, but you get the idea




We "Porked out at Munchies" like their T-shirts say. A fun place for Sunday breakfast. Took some pictures inside, but lost them during the camera to computer transfer..my mistake.


After breakfast we went across the street. We were in Glide, OR. Saw this sign and had to check it out.


Everything in the bakery looked good!


The cakes were a mile high, and these pies were nice and thick. Pat and I settled on a huge bear claw that we split.


Entrance to Brocie's Farms in Winston, OR


There is a scales here to weigh you when you go out to pick. If you eat several pounds of fruit or berries, you have to pay for your weight gain when you check out :-)


This place is open all year, depending on what the crops are. In the winter they import things


During the seasons, most of their products are local grown.


They plant at different times. Corn is being harvested right now, but this field of corn won't be ready for another month.


They plant flowers too. Some of the pretty ones, they cut and sell


These are mostly weed kinds of flowers


Because of different cameras, we're back on the trail here. Karen in the trees


And the falls. I think Ronda took these, since I'm in them


The ROK hat that Skid and Sandy gave me. I was probably the only one at Cortez that didn't win one at the drawing. They as several and felt sorry for me. :-)


Three steps in the Falls


Sherm, Preston and Karen


Bob and the Dolly



Looking at the water


Karen and Preston


Sherm with weird expression... This is why I don't like my picture taken ;-)



Dolly on the car floor...
