A Drive in the Cascade Mountains

We took a little drive in the mountains today and Will, with his unerring sense of direction, found an place with an awesome view where we could eat our picnic lunch while sitting on the tailgate.

We could see the snow-covered Mt. Washington and Three Finger Jack, although the peaks were covered with clouds for awhile. Mt. Washington eventually cleared. My camera doesn't photograph white peaks against a clouded sky very well!

Zeek spent a good bit of time playing with a special stick that he found. He also discovered a nearby slough and took a swim without asking permission. I must be getting desensitized, I didn't even notice a wet dog smell in the pickup on the way back!

There were many lovely waterfalls along the road.

It was a beautiful day in the mountains.
