a Trip around Mt Hood

Yesterday we drove completely around Mt Hood.  Starting at Portland, driving up the Columbia Gorge on Hwy 14, crossing over into Oregon on the Bridge of the Gods, and then up to Hood River.  We then took Hwy 35 south, through the orchard areas of Parkdale to Mt Hood Meadows and then onto Hwy 26, up to Timberline, and back to Canby.  The weather was spectacular, lots of sun,  temps in the low 70's, and because it was a Wednesday, not much traffic. 
   We enjoyed colorful trees, good roads, local fruit, tall mountains.  The day was great.
