Angel's Rest

So yesterday we headed on out to take in the wonderful weather that we have been having. Yes its been cool but its been sunny and dry which can be wonderful this time of year. We decided on going to Angels Rest east of Portland.

On the drive out along highway 84, the wind really started to pick up. Leaves and all sorts of debris on the road was flying around like mad! The car was pushing back and forth with the wind blowing like crazy. The wind can really get going through the Gorge but it was a bit much. We both laughed when Emma said "well we picked a good day for a hike."

After getting to the trail head we decided what the heck. The trail wasn't too windy since some of the places were shielded by the trees and canyons. A few places once we got higher were a little nuts and we had to keep an eye on Puma so he didn't get blown off the trail.

All in all the weather was nice....when the wind calmed down and the hike was really nice and had some great views.

Afterward we headed to Fire On The Mountain for some delectable fried chicken wings, sweet potato fries, and some lovely beer!

Here are some pics from our day!
