Mt. Angel Abbey

June 12th – Part Two

After hiking Silver Creek Falls we were on our way home. The sky was clear and as we stopped at a stop sign ready to make our turn toward Salem Ammon said, “What if we go to Mt. Angel and go up to the Abbey.” So we did.  As we approached the abbey on the hill we drove by…stopping at each of the “Stations of the Cross” and talked about what the pictures represented and the important sacrifice Christ made for us. 160 172

The view from the top of the mountain was breathtaking. Looking to the north we could clearly pick out Mt. Hood, Mt. St. Helens and Mt Rainier.  175 177

A truly amazing end to our wonderful day as a family!
