Wednesday, March 21 was a technicolor knockout in the Gorge with temperatures above 70 degrees and those oh-so-special daylight savings extending afternoon activities. Tom McCall Point Trail atop Rowena Loops was bustling with activity as sightseers and hikers took the trails to stumble on fields of purple, yellow and crimson.

Resistance is futile. The Wildflowers have won, and you can’t help but see them as even far-off hillsides grow yellow with petals. The glory of the Gorge is in its full magnificence, the sun beckons to kiss your face and all prospects of health and happiness are within your grasp. Your happy spot might be five minutes from your doorstep.
