"We should count as lost every day on which we did not *swim*" is my usual restating of the #Nietzsche aphorism. Much preferably in natural water — as I did here the other week, especially delightfully, in the Columbia River at #MemalooseStatePark a bit E. of #HoodRiver, #ColumbiaGorge #Memaloose

I did a 4.6 mile hike up to Angel’s Rest with my GF yesterday. We saw some incredible views during the 1500’ elevation gain! Picking just 4 pictures was tough!

cows and turbines near #Maryhill, Washington State, US, in the Eastern #ColumbiaGorge. taken from near the #MaryhillStonehenge replica I visited recently — because if you're going to have things so timeless as cows and turbines in the scene, why not a Stonehenge replica as well?
"Ink drinker" (Fr: buveur d'encre): avid reader, bookworm, someone who devours books.
[learned from Ink Drinkers Bookshop, #Kennewick, WA, E. of #ColumbiaGorge; also TIL there's a new readers-oriented/themed bar Ink Drinker in #Ballard #Seattle

Evening light over the Columbia River Gorge and Vista House, December 2025. Multiple exposures used for the light trails along the freeway.
It's going to be 70 degrees this week and I feel weirdly depressed about our lack of a winter this year. I did have some lovely time out and about this season with friends, but I would have liked a little snow (and far more on the mountains).

A photo of famous Multnomah Falls with a strong sunbeam shooting across it from upper right. This photo only captures the upper portion of the falls from the old footbridge to the forest at it's top. The falls drops from a high cliff and sits on the left side of the image, with a small tree near the base at the end of the bridge. Another smaller waterfall drops from the same cliff, and sits in the center of the image. In the foreground at lower right is a small green shrub, with small magenta flowers on it, that is strongly backlit by sunlight. The tall rocky cliff is dark with some areas of moss visible.
It's #WaterfallWednesday!
Here's #MultnomahFalls in the #ColumbiaGorge in #Oregon.
I had made a quick visit there to see the waterfall at high flow that year. As I was about to leave, sunbeams started playing across it!
Fine! I'll take more pics! 😆
