sno falls redux.

David and I went to Snoqualmie Falls this weekend, and enjoyed spectacular views, and had an amusing little run-in with Little Old People, who didn't realize they had to go a few hundred feet more to the observation deck to see a proper view of the falls, and said, in obvious disappointment whilst peering over the railing in an Non Scenic Part of the path, "This is all there is?!"

Then, David and I walked a little further on to the observation deck ourselves, hung around to take pictures of these magnficent views, and, about five minutes later on our way back to the parking lot, passed the Little Old People, who had maybe ventured five more feet from where they had first vocalized their disappointment, and didn't seem to be any closer to realizing there was an entire portion of the attraction they had missed.

I wonder if they ever got to see the entire falls, or got back in the car, drove back to Nowhere, South Dakota, and are telling all their friends what a "rip off" Snoqualmie was, even though it's a public attraction, and therefore free.








I think I look like a used car salesman in this picture:
