Lepage Park Campground - Rufus, OR

I found this lovely spot on Recreation.gov and used Mike's OFC to get the site for half price.  OFC means "Old Fart Card," his senior pass he got from the Parks Dept. when he turned 62.  :)  We stayed here two nights and had beautiful weather the whole time.  This is a U.S. Army Corp. of Engineers run campground, there is electric and water but no sewer.  That's ok, for $10 a night we can "rough it."

This is right across from our RV site, we wanted to sit in the sun and warm up for awhile.

On our drive over from the coast we drove past Multnomah Falls with every intention of stopping to see the falls.  It was raining cats and dogs as we passed the falls so we opted to go to the campground in Rufus and then drive back over the next day.  On Tuesday morning we got up early and headed out for a day of exploring.  First stop was to look at some locks on the Columbia River but the place was not open so we went on to Multnamah Falls.  We saw a smaller fall called Horsetail on the way to Multnomah, here is a picture of it.  It is a beautiful sight!

Multnomah is even more spectacular!!  It is the second tallest falls in the U.S., the sign didn't say which was the tallest.

I had to stand way back to get Mike in the picture as well as the entire falls.  

Here is a view of the campground where we stayed, our site is to the far left.  There are only about 20 sites here, 8 pull throughs and the rest are back ins.  We really enjoyed our stay here and were very glad to finally warm up and dry out.  There is a spot on the side of the motor home where the moisture had seeped under the skin, it has started to dry out.
