One of the greatest things about living near the Columbia River Gorge is that when you get the urge to see something beautiful, you need only hop in the car, drive there, and you're able to be back before dinner if you want. We here at The Grind enjoy the falls. Here's another shot of the lower Multnomah Falls, with the bottom of the upper falls in the background. (Click the photo to get a better view of the bridge).
