This meadow reminded me of the Sound of Music!
Looking east--some small town down there--maybe Philomath??We saw many different kind of wild flowers too!
This was my first real hike since the hike when I broke both of my arms! I was a little nervous--but I did just fine. I was careful to stay away from the lose gravel!!
Dad has wanted to take me to Mary's peak for a couple of years. So this was the week-end-the weather was perfect and we had the whole day to ourselves. We got lost a few times and Dad had to stop at a TAVERN to ask directions! I wish I would have gotten a photo of that! The drive to the trail head was beautiful and when we finally hiked up to the summit--the view was breath taking! They say that when the air is clear you can see the ocean, there was a little haze so we will have to go back some time and check it out.

I have never heard of Mary's Peak...where is it? It looks gorgeous! Makes me miss Oregon seeing all those trees.
That looks like a very fun date, a good choice for the new empty nesters. The YSA's are going on that hike in July, I'll look forward to it.
