Salt Creek Falls

I'm sorry these aren't in order. I always have them backwards. But this is the base of the waterfall and the stream that runs off of it.

The three amigos clowning around

Salt Creek Falls is the second tallest waterfall in Oregon. It is breathtakingly beautiful and the picture doesn't really do it justice.


Here are some wildflowers I shot on the way to see the waterfall. I hope to have some more photos in the coming days. One of the couples is going home today but we'll still be here for a while. It is so peaceful and relaxing here. I love it. Last night we had lobster tails that we barbecued and potato salad, home grown cucumbers and cantaloupe and green salad. What a meal. It was so delicious. The guys are out fishing this morning again and I am hoping I can escape having to go out early in the morning and fish. LOL I don't mind fishing I just don't like getting up in the dark and going out so early. I like to enjoy my mornings with my coffee or tea and check out blogger and Facebook.

Oh how beautiful. I love waterfalls anyway and that one looks spectacular. Likewise the flowers. I wonder what they are called? Not seen anything like them. Keep having a great time.

What gorgeous photos! I'm glad you're having such a relaxing time, and I'm totally with you on the fishing thing! I love to fish, but I want to do it in MY time... which means during daylight hours so I don't freeze my patootie off!

I'm looking forward to more photos!!!

The pictures are amazing. I just love waterfalls. I have a picture frame on my desk of 4 waterfalls.
I don't think I would want to get up that early to fish either.
It sounds like you are having a terrific time.
