In search of “autumnal delights” (Ally’s phrasing) we set off yesterday morning for the Fruit Loop, which is a collection of farms, farm-stands, and stores in and around Hood River. The Columbia River Gorge is absolutely stunning year round, but autumn is my favorite time to visit.
We purchased a LOT of apples, a couple pumpkins and a small variety of other locally made goods. It was sprinkling on and off which meant that rainbows kept coming and going. It’s just gorgeous out there. I was driving so I didn’t get to take pictures of all the fall leaves, but Ally helped me out some.
Ally took these photos on the drive.
