We started our day in the Columbia River Gorge planning to visit the popular Multnomah Falls and planned to visit other waterfalls in the area.
The first waterfall that we came across was Horsetail Falls. Horsetail Falls is a beautiful waterfall and was not very crowded. It is located along the very scenic road that runs parallel to the highway. No hiking needed for this one.
While we were here, a film crew setup and did a music video with Horsetail Falls in the background. It was kinda cool to see.
This is part of our Season 3 Part 2 and was filmed in the second half of 2019.

We were staying on the beach next to the water when a storm began approaching. We were lucky enough to find this campground.

Columbia River Gorge was beautiful and we made a day out of it. We spent the day doing short hikes and visiting many waterfalls.
This video shows part of the drive as well as Bridal Veil Falls and the Vista House. Both had amazing views. The Vista House is out on a point with views both ways down the river and it was a bit windy that day.

Today we finally reach the Pacific Ocean and we complete our name of Living Coast 2 Coast. We did this at he Roosevelt Beach Access location in Washington state. We have now been to the Pacific Ocean, Atlantic Ocean, Gulf of Mexico, and all of the Great Lakes within the United States.
We got here late in the day. We found a bunch of Sand Dollars and some of them were still alive. Mom was the only one of us to see one alive before but she lived in Hawaii for 4 years when she was young.
There were cliffs just a short ways back from the shoreline. It was obviously low tide and there was plenty of sand. We were amazed by the amount of large trees along the shoreline. It was a new experience for us.
As you can see, the sunset was gorgeous.
