Miscellaneous Monday – NEW stuff i gotta share

Happy Monday! We’ve been seeing and doing so many NEW things lately, I almost forgot to update my lists with these items. Ha! We’ve visited 3 NEW lighthouses: Cape Mears Lighthouse in Oregon, Cape Disappointment Lighthouse, and North Head Lighthouse in Washington. (The full collection is HERE).

We’ve added another park to our National Parks Bucket List. We visited Mount Rainier National Park.

We’ve added another movie location to my list. I confess I previously hadn’t watched the movie, Goonies, so the night before we were to explore Astoria, Oregon, we watched this classic movie. Someone mentioned that last year was its 50th anniversary. How did I not watch it before now?!? We saw the courthouse (which is now a museum), the house, and, of course, Haystack Rock at Cannon Beach, which were all filming locations in the movie.

And TA-DA! I made it past 100 waterfalls! I originally thought I’d keep track of waterfalls until I hit 100, but why quit now, huh? I filled the bucket, but we’re far from being done!

We hiked to three waterfalls in Mt. Rainier National Park and 8 of the 10 waterfalls in Silver Falls State Park in Oregon. They were all wonderful, but some had more water than others. I confess I didn’t snap photos of all of them at Silver Falls State Park.

And that’s about it for this week. I hope you all have an excellent week ahead and get to learn or do something NEW this week.

  1. Fab photos, Lenore! I love lighthouses too, but I’ve not seen as many as you have already. Congrats on the overfill of your waterfalls bucket list. It’s so good to hear that you’re making the most of your retirement!
