If At First You Don’t Succeed

It was a glorious day here in the Willamette Valley in March.  A perfect day to take a ride to Mary’s Peak.  A spot I’d heard a lot about but had never seen.  Some of you may remember my post from that fateful day that could have gone better.

For those that need a little nudge, try these:

So in other words, no fun!

Fast forward two short months.  Another glorious day in the valley.  I felt it was time to try it one more time.  With a new car, full tank of gas, Starbucks in the cup holder and more than a little trepidation we head back to our appointment with destiny!

OK.  So we got a little lost on the way.  The point is that we didn’t get as lost this trip as we did on the first.  So we had that going for us, right?

We made it all the way to Mary’s Peak and it was breathtaking:

The wildflowers didn’t let me down either!

So if at first you don’t succeed, try try again.  I would recommend waiting two months, filling the tank and maybe looking at a map.
