Leaf shadow, Cape Disappointment, Washington. You will certainly not be disappointed if you visit Cape Disappointment! The cape was named in 1788 by a fur trader who missed discovering the Columbia River due to a storm…more information on Wikipedia.

I’ve been in Ottawa for about two months, renovating the condo we own in order to rent it out, and never intended to stay this late in the year.
