Oriase Gorge Take 2

Monday, I had the day off for Columbus Day for the first time in who knows how many years. In RI we didn't get it off but we got Victory Over Japan Day off. Go Figure. I think it is the only state that is still celebrating that. I personally had never heard of it.

ANYWAY.

It was perfect weather and we made another attempt at the Oriase Gorge. Sam tried to pull the "I want to go home" bit again, but we nipped it in the bud. It was gorgeous and the leaves were JUST beginning to turn colors. This time we went further up the Gorge and saw lots of beautiful waterfalls and picturesque scenery. At the top of the Gorge is Lake Towada, where we had a picnic with the boys.

Here are my latest pics:

Those are some nice pics, yo! So what was the cause of the scrapes and whatnot? (read what did Sam do to Gabe?)

OK my question on Emmers blog is now answered. He did have Boug like scabs all over his face. I remembered your picture taken in the green jean jacket with scabs on face. I hope he feels better.

If you get sick of teeth you can take pics. Those are beautiful. Where did my order of the light house pic end up? Was I supposed to get it from Costco and never did?
