Mt Hood - Timberline Lodge part 1

Wednesday Randa and I drove out to Hounds Rest because the new dogs are there.  18 new Greyhounds.  With another volunteer we got them taken care of by 11:30.  Nice bunch of hounds.
   We had decided that while we were already east of Portland why not go further east and drive to Mt Hood.  It had been several years since we visited Timberline Lodge.  Timberline was constructed by the WPA and dedicated in September of 1937.  The WPA utilized quality artisans  in all areas.  Wood carvers, weavers for rugs and wall hangings, black smiths for the iron work. The interior is awesome.

This is the front door carving

Notice the size of these beams.  All carved and pegged.  Craftsmanship.

Very comfortable lobby.
