Today’s photo comes from early November 2012. I ride by this tree nearly every day on my bike, and it won’t be long before it looks like this again.

We are returning to Ashland today, after one more hike, to conclude our vacation in the Mt. Hood area. Tamanawas Falls has been my favorite hike so far, as the trail follows the lovely Cold Spring Creek.
