Show Me the Place, 52


“Show me the place.”
Duke Senior in As You Like It (2.1)

52: Columbia River Highway; Westbound; Oregon; from 1940s Onward

I loved that river highway drive—
It made me glad I was alive.

The mighty river—dams, of course—
The mountains—nature: vital force!

The Dalles had fishermen with nets—
A site no tourist e’er forgets.

Mt. Hood still looms, not far away—
I’d love to be right there—today.
