Grant's Getaways: Paddling Across History
Oregon's fastest-growing water-based recreation, flatwater kayaking, enjoys popularity because it is simple to get involved: all you need is a paddle, a PFD (Personal Flotation Device) and a 16-foot kayak to explore the great Oregon outdoors on the water.
But what we call recreation is actually based upon tried-and-true tradition and skills learned through generations over thousands of years. Oregon is blessed with so many different places to enjoy an afternoon paddle adventure; perhaps a favorite pond, lake, estuary or a quiet stretch of slow moving river.

Columbia River AirBnB | Washougal, Washington | Travelpreneur Adventure Series
Looking for a quiet, relaxing getaway?
Washougal is the perfect Pacific Northwest get-away. Lying directly North of the Columbia River Gorge, it is right by beautiful Pacific beaches, mountains, and is close to a plethora of hiking trails. It's also only a 35-minute drive from Portland, Oregon, where one can enjoy the funky, hipsteresque night life and amazing street food.
Stay in an AirBnB at an affordable price and enjoy the natural beauty this town has to offer.
In the summer, it's a local past-time to float along the Washougal River. The water stays cold so save this for a sweltering day. And don't forget to bring some refreshments (nothing makes you float like beer).

Grant's Getaways: GORGEous Bikeway
You can really touch history in the Columbia River Gorge, especially through an ambitious project that puts you face to face with one of the true wonders of the state: the old Columbia River Gorge Scenic Highway that is now becoming a byway restored.
The Columbia River Gorge is a many-splendored place for moments of beauty and heart-pounding scenery; many places like Elowah Falls capture the hearts of visitors and never let them forget that Oregon provides amazing moments.
It is also scenery that is easier to reach for cyclists and hikers who like to leave their cars behind so to touch a bit of Oregon history too. Near John Yeon State Park (Exit 35 off I-84), the Oregon Dept of Transportation is applying final touches as they transform a section of the old Columbia River Scenic Highway into a part of the Columbia Gorge State Trail.
