I sent a card of Multnomah Falls to a record-shop owner I know in Portland, both because it’s his home state and because the caption on the back contains the very band-name-like phrase “The Smashing Leap”. The full sentence:
“It has many falls along its picturesque course and the climax of its dashing is the smashing leap it makes for union with the Columbia”.
A reader sent me a photo very much like this one taken just a few days ago. One person commented that because the bridge was closed due to the pandemic, it was finally possible to get a shot free of people. They need to learn the lost art of the airbrush.
