We, The Dyers and us, left for Sisters Oregon today at 3:30 pm. Beautiful drive to Salem, and we had dinner. Shrimp shrimp and more shrimp was the order of the day. We arrived in Sisters at 8:30 pm on Thursday and went to bed. The Condo is beautiful, has a pond out of our window.
We got up Friday and headed to the Craters. Went to Windy peak, it was windy and cold. Dee Wright observatory was the next stop. Built in the depression in 1937 by the CCC. It is all made from Lava which covers the area as far as the eye can see.. 
From there we hiked to two water falls. Proxy falls and one unnamed. They were really spectacular. Interesting note. The unnamed waterfall has 3 big streams running into a pond. The pond has no outlet it just stays the same level. The water is going into the porous rock formation and must come out somewhere else. Very nice.
Today there was a harvest festival in Sisters. It was raining but fun. Had some good Hawaiian plate, pulled pork, and chicken. Got a free print from Dan Rickard, a local artist in Sisters.

So fun! I love waterfall hikes!
that looks like a lot of fun. The sculpture is a little hard to make out it looks different.
