Portland Hike

 Sunday started with fog and cold. A stop at a coffee shop for something to get me ready for an 8 mile hike. Of course being Portland, the service was terrible. I finally got my stuff and walked to the meeting location, at a near by park. Here I would meet up with the rest of the group and start up the hill into Forest Park. The total distance for this hike was seven miles and we would go up and down. I don't hike with groups much, but I heard they were doing this hike and I decided to tag along.
 Typical Portland, wet and muddy but it wasn't to bad and the walking took care of the cold. The last part of the trail followed a nice stream and the sound of running water is nice to have. A lot more people on the lower part of the trail, not as many up in the hills.
 Lots of water and streams but this is the largest one.
After the walk, the fog was gone and it finally cleared up, still cold but not to bad and no rain...
