Taking the Girls to Mt Hood

Today the girls and I went to Mt Hood. It was actually warmer than at the beach – crazy. We went around the lodge and played some ping pong ball. Jill played a diddy on the piano in the lodge, and got quite a reception from one of the employees – we did not know he was there. It was hysterical! There were more tourists and less skiers this time. Mostly snow boarders and old people. I expected it to be all green and pretty, but it was all brown and dreary looking. Unfortunately there was a big cloud over the top of Mt Hood so we could not see it all. We rode up in the chair lift, which was great fun… well… for Victoria and I. Jill was a bit freaked out.

After we left Mt Hood we went in search of a lake that we could see from up top. It turned out we did find it – it was Trillium Lake. It was so pretty down there.

We went downtown for dessert at Papa Haydn’s - yummy, and then we walked around a bit.
