Day 221: Gorge

This morning, William and I had to get to Gorge to see part of a three day Dave Matthews Band concert. Before we left, we headed into downtown Seattle and go to the top of the Columbia Center. Today is a much clearer day, so I was able to see much of the mountains and the bay. After we saw the city from above and gathered supplies, we headed out, except we decided to take the long way. Instead of taking I90 pretty much all the way to Gorge, we took Highway 2 through the Cascade Mountains and then down the Columbus River to Gorge; a slow but beautiful drive.

We ended up getting to the campsite pretty late; by the time we set up and pre-gamed some, we made it in for the last couple songs. Tonights concert ended much earlier than we both expected, 10pm. While we missed most of the concert, it was still a good night getting to know the people camping around us and enjoying a clear night's sky.
