summer evenings are for...

...exploring!

We've discovered a new trail! 

{new to us that is}

Actually our "newlyweds" had been talking recently about a great trail next to the Tualatin River that they use when they take their evening walks. It has a nice pedestrian bridge which crosses the river and a long, winding path that connects two parks in neighboring towns. We finally had a chance to try it out one warm night last week and loved all the animals, fields, parks and tree lined banks along the river

and next to the creeks.

A train loaded with logs even went rumbling by just as the sun was setting.

A great place for walking, running, biking, dogs 
and also 
canoeing, fishing 
or 

just floating on the river.

What a beautiful place for an evening walk!
