You may or may not know this, but the very first post on this blog was about Timberline Lodge. It’s kind of a short and sweet post, so I thought it deserved revisiting. It is very close to home and I visit often, but not often enough.

The second time I was here (I don’t remember the first time)  It was a beautiful, clear, summer day in late August. Sitting on the patio we could see Mt Jefferson. The woman sitting at the table next to us said to her son, “I can’t believe a place this beautiful exists.”

Here are some random factoids.

• It is the location of one of my favorite moments
• The Pacific Crest trail passes by it and so it is often the resting spot of many weary backpackers.
• It was used for the exterior shots of the film, The Shining.
