The Columbia River ran right to the right of the road we took leaving the Holiday Inn Express. |
Eventually Portland International Airport was on our left. I missed getting shots of the two flights that took off and the one flight that landed. |

As we approached NE 13th Ave. for our first left turn, these floating homes were on the right. |
Several homes in the Northeast section had perennial gardens instead of lawns. |

This is a shot of Kenna Hall on the University of Portland campus. The Air Force ROTC unit is housed in the basement. My son spent four years here graduating with a Civil Engineering degree. |
The main entrance to to University of Portland campus is just to the North of Kenna.

We were crossing the Broadway Bridge when I took this shot of the 405 bridge over the Willamette. |
Oak woodlands are fairly common heading north on Hwy 30. |

|
The coyote had just gotten up from a morning nap when I spotted it lumbering through the tall grass. |
This farm was one of a number along the highway today. |
|
|
The nuclear power plant has a park between it and Hwy 30.
|
Just to the north of where this photo stops, I saw a kingfisher dart off his branch, into the water and back out with lunch. |

Another riparian section off to the right of Hwy 30.
|
Walking the tandem across the Longview, Lewis and Clark Bridge limited what photos I was able to take. This tugboat passed beneath us before we made it to the Washington side. |
