Sorry for the late post.
We spent a few days in Cascade Locks and all went our separate ways. The Chairman and Little Red back south for the Sierra, and Freddy and I off trail. This bouncing up and down had got expensive and we both missed family!
We however took the opportunity of crossing the Bridge of the Gods.







And one morning these two wonderful people cooked breakfast for us and provided great conversation.

Freddy and I headed for Portland and, surprise, in the bookshop met these two

I hadn’t seen Bluetooth, my favourite Texan, since Big Bear Lake!
Freddy flew home and I started a long journey South to meet Fleur, who was flying in to LA. We shall do a long road trip.
