Mark and I are still doing dates from our 'Date of the Month' club. We have been so busy this summer, that I have fallen 2 dates behind! We did have our 'Nature Date' this Saturday though. We went to Ashton for lunch. We call it the huckleberry milkshake place, since we don't know the actual name of it. It used to be the drugstore, and now it's converted into a little restaurant. They have yummy sandwiches and pizza. We took a detour drive to Cave Falls, because Mark had never been there before. It's a beautiful waterfall. It doesn't drop very far, but it goes all the way across the river. We also realized that there are some hikes up in that area that we want to try.
Cave Falls
There is a cave beside the falls, but there had been a rock slide, so you can't get to it now. Bummer!
After Cave Falls, we headed to Mesa Falls. We stopped along the way to feed the fish.

This is Lower Mesa Falls. I love this whole area! It is so beautiful!
Upper Mesa Falls.
We did a hike from the Upper Falls down to the Lower Falls and back. Other than the bugs, and giant horse flies attacking us, it was a great time.

I had no idea the cave was covered - dang! I still call it the drug store too. Looks like a fun date. I will have to tell some of my old friends that people actually came to Ashton for a date - they won't believe it!
