PALOUSE FALLS



The attached pictures are of Palouse Falls in Eastern Washington.  We drove my cousin to Prosser on Tuesday - -  and took a little side trip to the falls.  We arrived there very late Tuesday night, so spent all day Wednesday enjoying the varying views from numerous vantage points, including a strenuous hike down to the river's edge....  Then on Wednesday evening we were treated to a thunder and lightning storm as it passed through - - and the delightful company of another couple camping next to us.  The four of us had our combined contributions to dinner together in our very small, but adequate, pop-up camper.   I was quickly reminded about the suggested 6 degrees of separation....   We didn't get past one without finding commonality - - especially the guys.  It's fun to explore similarities and differences - - and a joy to share bits of the journey with special people who merge momentarily with our path.

For those who haven't been to this falls, it is  180 feet high.  The rainbow was visible for only a few minutes in the afternoon before the clouds covered the sun, so I felt really fortunate to get a few pics of it while it was visible!
