Sunny Day Trip

We woke up this morning and decided to take advantage of the beautiful sunny weather. We thought a trip to the Bridge of the Gods would be fun and it is a gorgeous drive. It's only about 45 minutes from our house, so we ventured out.

We drove around in Cascade Locks, OR

An old wagon or something that was sitting on the side of the bridge. I thought it looked pretty cool, so I took a picture.

  3. It's so easy to find. Just drive Hwy 14 towards Camas and about 45 minutes later, you are there. The great thing is that you never have to get off Hwy 14. You will see a sign when you get close to the Bridge. Pay $1 to drive over the bridge into Oregon and you arrive in Cascade Locks. There are some touristy attractions. Then you can drive back over the bridge to go home Hwy 14, or you can stay in Oregon and take I-84 home. Love it!
