New in town

How do you know you are new in town? For starters, you would know to expect snow when hiking in Bend in December. You see, even if there isn't snow down by your house, it doesn't mean there isn't snow 10 minutes away. As we pulled up to turn into Tumalo Falls the gate was down and locked. We decided to just go for it, so we parked and hiked down the road 2 1/3 miles to the trail head.

I live for adventure, so I was determined to see Tumalo Falls no matter what. No ice or snow was stopping this girl. The sun was shining. The air was fresh. The company was pleasant and entertaining. A few rolling down the windows (you know the motion you do when you almost fall?), but we finally made it. And what a sight it was.

Life is short, live it. Love is rare, grab it. Anger is bad, dump it. Fear is awful, face it. Memories are sweet. Cherish them...I certainly will cherish this one.
