For #WaterfallWednesday, here's a photo of Triple Falls in the Columbia River Gorge in Oregon that I made in September 2022, five years after the Eagle Creek Fire had burned the area.
Some background is in my blog post "Fire In The Forest" which you can find here: https://www.alex-kunz.com/fire-in-the-forest-reason-to-be-optimistic-part-2/

#Tunnel5 brush fire in the Columbia River Gorge, across the Columbia from Hood River, which is an hour East of Portland, OR. Started yesterday, July 2, & is throwing off plenty of smoke but fortunately hasn't made it very far. They're using brand new air tankers & scooping up river water to fight it! #hoodriver

One of my favorite placed the #ColumbiaRiverGorge is on fire, again. The #Tunnel5Fire is quickly spreading in steep terrain.
Not my pictures.

It's been so cold that the dogs feel like 50 F is hot! Bonneville Dam high voltage pylons in the distance. #PNW #ColumbiaRiverGorge #dogsofmastodon

The Columbia River separates Oregon and Washington States. There are many beautiful views of this area from both sides of the river.This Image is taken looking east with the Vista house in the Distance.

I'm #grateful for the oasis of #columbiarivergorge.
I'll be making greater use of this space on trips to visit my father.
He'll be celebrating 91 years in a few days. He is a good man and a good example to follow.
Unfortunately, #dementia is slowly worsening his quality of life. My step-mother is healthy enough to care for him; otherwise, he would a care facility. Routine and home is what is most important to him now.
I'm trying to arrange for more help. It's a little difficult for her to accept, but I think she's finally ready. I don't live close enough to help as much as I would like.

Spent a couple days at Skamania Lodge and captured this photo of the Columbia River Gorge on a moody morning.

"Unique among the best-known Columbia Gorge waterfalls in the way that it drops straight down from an overhanging basalt cliff," and "an excellent example of columnar basalt formations."

More Maryhill Museum. I wish this was perfectly centered but it is not. Oh, well, life isn't perfect and I refuse to crop it to make it so.

I always liked this picture for the absolute incongruity of it: just a glimpse of Maryhill Museum, some sort of heavy construction in the short distance, hills that rise out of nowhere with a rustic fence, and a row of wind turbines that appear to be marching over the hills. Of course, can't beat that lovely blue sky with puffy white clouds.
