It's not news that I work a lot of hours these days, which usually makes for early bedtimes and not much free time for other activities - but this past weekend I had Sunday off and I made sure we made the most of it. Even with all the football on, I still convinced Brad and a few friends to head out to Trillium Lake for the day. The way I see it football will be here all winter when the weather is crappy. I want to get out and enjoy the last few days of sun and fall goodness, before the grey and rain are here to stay.
Sunday's weather was perfect, the picnic was enjoyable, our friend's puppy was the cutest, the company was lovely, and the view couldn't be beat. We even got our Florida girl to hike a little, even though it wasn't originally on the agenda. If you're in the Portland area, make sure you venture out towards Mount Hood and check out all the hiking and lakes in the area.

I think Portland has to be one of the most beautiful cities.
This is like the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.
What a gorgeous view! I love hiking in the fall between the days of rain ♥ I will have to put this on my list to see one day!

Oregon is such a beautiful state! I'm itching to go back with Thomas and do the outdoorsy stuff this time (I've been twice before to visit my family that lives there)!
Wow, those pics are amazing! We were in Oregon this summer, and I wish we lived in a place that beautiful!

Dogs make pictures 10X Better (even in an already awesome picture) Where would we be without dogs, looks like you had a great day, that scenery is impressive. Cheers my friend.
