Ever been to Doherty Slide? Not many have. Not the kind of place you want to break down as you can go hours without seeing another car or human.

The Dalles Bridge (January 2016)

Ellie and I were on our way back to Southern Oregon from a recruiting visit at Whitman College when today’s photo was taken. She didn’t end up going there, so this is from the last time we were in Walla Walla.

2026 is her 10-year high school reunion year and my 40th. Yikes!

13-photo photomerge of Plzen

I wasn’t on the top of the spire, of course, but you can see where this panorama came from by looking up from here. The Pilsner Urquell Brewery can be seen in the background on the left.

Also, it’s sort of odd the “City of a Hundred Spires” (Prague) doesn’t have the tallest spire in the country.
