Return to Multnomah

2018 West, Columbia River Gorge NSA-Oregon, National Parks, Oregon, Road Trip, States

A year ago the Eagle Creek Fire was raging through the Columbia River Gorge and Mt Hood National Forest. We were a bit reticent about visiting on this trip and we find it discouraging to look at the extensive fire damage. Parts of our beloved US-30 are closed due to fire damage as are many many hiking trails. But businesses remain and are heartily welcoming the return of the visitors, including Multnomah Falls Lodge. We’ve been here twice before and just had to return for good food, fabulous historic ambiance, the amazing 620 foot waterfall, and to bring some business back to an area that suffered so much devastation a year ago.

The purpose of our trek to Strawberry Hill House in Twickenham in the southwest of London was to see a recently recovered bronze bust of the Emperor Caligula but we discovered so much more in the recently restored 18th Century “little Gothic castle” built by Horace Walpole.
