Cascade Falls
We live in one of the most amazing areas. We can get to places like this within half an hour, sometimes less!! My mission this past year has been to find and explore as many local sights as I can, to instill in my kids the same sense of adventure and loving the outdoors that my parents did in me!
We have been fighting colds and flu’s since before Christmas and this past week was especially trying! All of us cooped up inside, cranky from being sick and wanting to just do something other than have another day on the couch! So we made a vow that rain our shine we would get outside, even if it was just for a few minutes!
I saw a fellow instagrammer post photos of the Cascade Falls Suspension Bridge, and we had our spot! :) We met a few of our closest friends there, and explored. We all got soaking wet but it was glorious. I think I said atleast 5x “Why have I NEVER been here?!?!” It was a 30 minute drive my house!! Seriously!
There is something about being outside that erases any type of bad mood I am in. Regardless if it’s sunny or rainy, once I’m out there I don’t wanna come back. It started getting foggy as it got darker and I had an even harder time heading back…fog is one of my most favourite types of weather….it makes everything seem cozier :)
My hair was wet with that amazingly attractive pacific northwest frizz, and my feet were soaked right through, but it was so worth it. I can’t wait to go back in the summer and swim in the ponds once the river dies down!
