Fishing on Columbia River - May 2014

Our good friend, Doug, took us out salmon fishing.  It was a wonderful trip, even with only getting bites and no fish in the boat.  We live in a beautiful area of the country.  I will never take for granted the beauty just outside our door - Washougal is a city along the Columbia River nor that within one hour we can be at a beach or the mountains.  Never know I was along, except as a photographer.
