Waterfalls

Probably one of the most photographed waterfalls in the United States. This is the lower part of Multnohmah Falls in the Columbia River Gorge. There is a bridge on the hiking trail just above the lower falls. The trail goes all the way to the top and there are more falls above the main falls.
Here is Upper Multnohmah Falls. At over 300 feet it is one of the longest drops in the United States.

I wanted to go chase SP 4449 from Portland to Bend and back this past weekend but I was on standby for the hospital so I had to content myself with looking at pictures others posted. If you go to this site http://www.railroadforums.com/forum/index.php you can see them too.

Parking Structure Demo

Back in May the hospital I work for began tearing down a parking structure to make way for a new hospital building. Complicating the process was the emergency generator and telephone switch building that adjoined the parking structure. Over the next few days and weeks I'll post some pictures of the process.

Above: Taken from the southwest corner of the structure. The support cribbing can be seen inside the structure.
Above: This is the northwest corner. Besides the stairway there was also an elevator. The helicopter pad has already been removed.
Below: The southeast corner, still intact. The structure in the background is the former employee parking structure that is now available for both visitors and employees.
