This weekend was a beautiful sunny break in the Pacific Northwest. We took this rare break in the rain to escape to the Oregon coast to go for a quick 5 mile hike. Heidi and I went to the Cape Falcon to a trail that we had found in the book 60 Hikes Within 60 Miles of Portland by Paul Gerald. The trail was a little muddy in a few places but the views were amazing. The trail comes out to the point of Cape Falcon, where the wind was blowing like crazy.  It was a great time spent with a great friend.  We are planning on trying more hikes from this book, it would be great to get them all done this summer.  But, we will see what our time and schedules allow.
