The flowers are out y'all. You better get to the Gorge while the gettin' is good.
I went on a hike without Tupelo. And she knows. And I feel so guilty. But it's not like I had a choice...no pups allowed at Rowena Crest. That didn't stop a couple of folks that I assume had no idea from bringing their four legged friends along. Tupes gave me a full sniff down when I came home. It was terrible. BUT, in my defense, I think she was still a little sore from the Clackamas River Trail the day before and needed the rest. Our muscle relaxant store is dwindling... Sometimes I wonder if she has developed a little "problem." Like, she isn't so much sore as she is drug-seeking.
My pal, Lisa, and I attacked this trail a couple of Sundays ago. It was packed. I would try to go during the week for those of you lucky enough to be able to do so. It was just a short 3.4 miles up hill with glorious views of the Gorge and a bazillion wildflowers.
And stop by one of the many breweries in Hood River when you're done. It was swell.
