Sunny Hike

The rain has come and today I am needing a little sunshine. I thought I'd share some photos from a sunny adventure we had last month. On an early-release day, Toe and I decided to hike on one of the Fort Clatsop trails. It was a perfect afternoon - warm, but not too hot - as we ambled along the river and through the forest.

There were many "fuzzy bear" caterpillars to stop and watch.

I love the light in the afternoons this time of year. The quality is different from any other time. It is a strong light, and warm, but it creates long shadows across everything. I was kicking myself that I didn't bring the better camera, but the light was so good, I was able to take some decent photos anyway.

Love
