Welcome Spring!

"...But angel-like shall he arise
In spring's immortal hour.
In blue and yellow from its grave
Springs up the crocus fair..."

The Crocus by Harriet Beecher Stowe

It was a beautiful day in the Pacific Northwest. Blue skies, white fluffy clouds, and air temperatures that reminded us that Spring is in fact on its way. So we did what any other Portlander would do....go out and play.

We went to the Gorge today to hike the six mile roundtrip trail from Horsetail Falls to Triple Falls. We were not the only ones with the same idea...all the trails and parking lots were packed! This was an awesome hike. A bit challenging due to the elevation gain but not too horrible and the scenery was fantastic.

Spring is coming tomorrow and it looks like it's bringing a house guest....April showers.
