Glad you had a good ride, though. Big Grin Thanks for another pic of Mt Hood. It’s very striking.

Totally agree, I had to raise the face shield and then the cold air blasts the eyes... it's striking the difference between the fog-enshrouded road closed area and the green bridge--same river, less than 4 miles distant from each other. One area probably had a good hour of sunshine while the other didn't. Even though it was 38-39 temps, 10 minutes after leaving the fog area, I felt that I was "warming back up".

See what I mean with all the bridge names? I've heard mention of these, but I had to look it up and I found out the Fremont is the 405 and Marquam is I-5 bridge. If I go late at night, maybe I can sneak across the Tilikum on the CB.
