Full view of Multnomah Falls. |
This week, my sister came up since she missed my birthday and we decided to do a family BBQ, which actually turned out somewhat decent with only one dramatic altercation. IF you knew my family, you would know that this is a miracle. But, I did cheat by indulging myself in pasta salad, potato salad, a turkey burger, and some good ol’ corn on the cob fresh out of the garden and cooked on the grill! So as you can see, I was off my Nutrisystem diet for that day, maybe even for half the week. OOPSIE! Summer is my weakness because of BBQ season. I just can’t help myself.
At the top, where there were small waterfall run-offs. |
The following day, my sister, her fiance, our youngest sister and myself decided to do an impromptu hike up Multnomah Falls. Now the last time I did this hike, I was 25 pounds heavier and at the half way point I couldn’t make it up anymore cause I was constantly trying to catch my breath. Well, that was not me this time! I simply had no problems and was full of energy since my sister made me a delicious fruit juice drink from her juicer that morning. My sister, however, was me from my last experience. She had to stop quite a bit, but she recovered and pushed herself all the way to the top for which I am proud. She really wanted to give up, but we knew she could do it if she just kept at it and that she did.
