Furr and Falls

Sorry the blog posts have been thin on the ground lately, I was hit with a pretty nasty cold this week but finally felt good enough today to go out and play with Troy. So we decided to head up to Snoqualmie Falls, just about forty minutes from our house. The falls where absolutely beautiful as the run off was particularly high due to the very heavy rain we have had lately. I decided that this outing would be a perfect time to pull out my fur vest (see how I created this vest here). I have been thinking about pulling out my fur for fall ever since I viewed Okopodes Fall post. Okopodes is a blog that is created by a friend of mine Tiffany Hilton she is an amazingly talented girl go and check out her blog. I apologize in advance for the overload of pictures in this post there was just too much fall, fur, and falls beauty!

Some Fall Colors as we Started our journey

A very Welcome Blue Sky as we headed up the Pass

The view of from the Top of the Falls, the Falls where going 
so strong that there was lots of spray back on the viewing platform.







Then after stopping at the gift shop and picking up the first Christmas gift of the season we headed down to the lower viewing area.

More Vibrant Fall Colors

The View on the drive down, I think the moss covered trees are just spectacular!

Leaves bigger than my hand along the trail


An electric plant that harnesses the power of the falls, it was odd to see this stark modern building in the middle of all of this nature.

We then took a break and relaxed and explored next to a calmer part of the river

Hope you enjoyed our little Fall adventure!
