Hello everyone! I'm so sorry to be out of touch--we've had literally weeks and weeks of zero internet on this second part of our trip! In fact, we had to drive our truck for miles just to get a signal. Finally we're back to better data connections and since today's Friday, I thought the picture I took a couple of days ago would be perfect! :D

One of our favorite parks, LL Stub Stewart, has a maze of wonderful trails and this one, the "Timber Beast Trail" wanders through forest and then down through a steep ravine, where it crosses over this marvelous little bridge before ending at the area's famous and popular rails-to-trails Banks-Vernonia bikeway. (Looks like my phone geo-tagged this image so you can see by clicking on the map link to the right "Location: View on map) exactly where I took this shot! You'll also be able to see all of the wonderful trails we get to explore on foot or bike! :D)

I hope everyone is doing well! I'm sorry to hear that Delta has returned us all to quarantines and wearing masks...once again, the United States is leading the way to stupid behavior and outrageous infection numbers. Ugh.

Have a wonderful weekend! I'm hoping to visit some photo streams if I can!
