Almost didn't get this. |
Description: |
I had waited by this trestle for more than an hour. I decided to go home, thinking that they probably just shoved it into the siding for future reference. When I got to our apartment, I heard the whistle at Summit St. started the car back up and drove to Cascade Locks. It's about a tenth of a mile on foot uphill from the car to the spot from which I shot. Almost didn't get it. |
