Trip to Mt. Hood, Photos.

My Mom is visiting from Boston, so we have been taking her around a bit. We went to Timberline ski area, and Timberline Lodge on Mt. hood. The lodge was build as a work project during the depression, it is most way cool, with wood work and carvings all through it.
The ski are is open for summer skiing.

We live about 25 minutes to the right of this photo.

I grew up seeing Mt. Hood most days in Forest Grove. Living the past 50 years on the flatlands of Iowa and Nebraska, I am still homesick for Oregon. Thanks for the photos.

Thanks for the photos. I don't live anywhere there is snow so it is a treat. Someone showed me some pictures of her trip home to Canada and I wondered why she took black and white pictures until I realized she was wearing a bright red coat. It is a different kind of beauty from what I am used to.
