We made it back to Ryderwood and took a serene walk to our Lake and now over the bridge which spans Campbell Creek and now into town. I think Diane had a great time (even though it was not the best of August weather), she endured the rain really well. She kept saying "oh, this is so nice just as it is and don't worry about the weather". Really a trooper. We hope that she comes back for and we will take her to Mt. St. Helens, up the Columbia Gorge (where we had planned to go) but since it was raining and would have only given us a blurred view from the car, we nixed that plan for this trip.
