A Celebration and Happy Easter!

Happy Easter everyone! He Is RISEN!

We celebrated today by going to different waterfalls and enjoying God's creation, giving thanks for His blessings. We are in Milwaukie, Oregon, a few miles outside of Portland. Our house is getting some upgrades at Ultimate Airstreams in nearby Clackamas until May 3. So we are at a charming AirBnB. It's a cute little studio apartment that overlooks the river (the Clackamas river). I can take a shower and run the water without worrying about whether or not I will run out!!

through the trees is the river

the TV has Netflix, Hulu, all sorts of stuff!

kitchen

even a full-sized washer/dryer!
I won't know what to do with myself....washing clothes on demand!

We took our anniversary present (aka, our new truck) down the road to get Line-X done and an auxillary fuel tank installed. Now we can tow upwards of 1200 miles. Look out! The tank was also Line-x'd, and boy, does it look sharp! (the tank is under the back window).

And this was all in the first week!
So our waterfall drive looked like this:
Willamette Falls
2nd largest to guess who? Niagara Falls (American Falls)

 
Here's what it sounds like coming down 242 feet:
Wahkeena Falls

Multnomah Falls 

 
Horsetail Falls

Bridal Veil Falls

LaTourell Falls

The Columbia River Gorge

Seeing all that nature really worked up an appetite; and the only thing that could quench it was a lamb gyro from Gyro House in Beaverton (the best)!

We had a really great day celebrating everything and enjoying nature. I hope everyone had a great Easter Sunday: and remember that the Lord is Risen and He is ALIVE! Y'all come back, and He is too! 😉💟
