OREGON TRAIL

We were able to head down to Portland this past weekend and enjoy time with Sharon's brother and sister and their spouses. We enjoyed an early dinner on the river in Portland before heading over to the Starlight Parade downtown. We enjoyed a beautiful evening of watching the parade and following my sister-in-law around the parade route. After spending the night in Portland we headed down to Corvallis through wine country, just beautiful! We enjoyed their hospitality and the fellowship of my brother and his wife for a couple of days before heading back home via the Oregon coast. In spite of the clouds and rain we enjoyed seeing the farmland, dairy country, mountains and coast of Oregon. Enjoy the pictures.

One More Time Around Band on the move in the Starlight Parade in Portland.

Our Sabbath rest started with a walk through the Rhododendron Garden in Portland. You can only imagine how many images we now have of all colors of Rhododendrons.


We were treated to a tour of the vineyard in addition to wine tasting.

We hiked the Old Growth Trail near Corvallis, Oregon.
