On the way to Corvallis from Walla Walla to visit my little sister, my mom and I stopped at <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multnomah_Falls" target="_blank">Multnomah Falls in Oregon</a>. It's a beautiful waterfall about an hour outside of Portland on the Columbia River.

The day that we stopped it was very sunny. My photos are only so-so as a result.

The waterfall is breath taking. It's the tallest in Oregon and apparently the second tallest year-round waterfall in America. That's pretty cool.

When we were little and driving between Corvallis (where we lived) and visiting our grandparents in Walla Walla (where my parents now live), we'd regularly stop off at Multnomah Falls to run around, go to the bathroom and to have a snack before piling back into the car to continue the 5.5-6 hour drive from Corvallis to Walla Walla.

Sometimes the things that you remember as a child aren't as spectacular when you return to them as an adult but I have to say the waterfall was just as spectacular as I remember it.
