A Rare Sight!

Wow, are we excited!  Not only did we begin the last leg of our trip just about an hour ago, but in over 10 years of boating on the Columbia we have never before seen a log boom in tow!  And in such a beautiful surrounding--the fall colors and the mist around the gorge cliffs...

Enjoy!

Captain Al says to note the three vertical lights, signifying a tow astern with a total length of over 200 meters.
