Here is my picture taken from the other side...not exactly Pinterest worthy, is it?
We drove over to Portland to go to Cathedral Park today. Cathedral Park is a small city park on the Willamette River. To quote the Portland Parks and Recreation site.
The site which now bears the name Cathedral Park is steeped in history. It is believed to be one of the 14 Lewis and Clark landing sites in the Vancouver-Portland area: William Clark and eight men camped there on April 2, 1806. This spot had been a fishing and camping site for many area Indian tribes. In 1847, the founder of St Johns, James John, settled on the site and operated a ferry to Linnton across the Willamette River. In 1931, the St Johns Bridge was built on the site with 400-ft towers and a main span of 1,207 feet. It is the only steel suspension bridge in Portland.
It really was quite lovely. Today was a warm fall day with minimal rain and it was good to get out.
Here are some of my pictures from my i-phone.
This isn't the first time we have found something fun to do on Pinterest. I guess it's not just crafts and baking!
