Day in the Park

Yesterday Teresa called and she was a few mintes from our house so she came over, we went to get some lunch and then we went to Boulevard Park in Bellingham. The park is beautiful, very windy but nice.

Spring is Here!!


Here we are sitting in our back yard on April 6. We did end up going back inside because we started getting a little cold since it was getting late. Our lawn has been mowed twice and our bulbs are up. We've got seeds planted inside and have been enjoying drives in the convertible with the roof down. What a wonderful thing Spring is.
Nevertheless He did not leave Himself without witness, in that He did good, gave us rain from heaven and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness. Acts 14:17

Weekend in Oregon

Last weekend we spent a few days traveling around Oregon. The first night we went to Portland, stayed at hotel and spent the evening swimming in the pool.
Outside our hotel on Friday morning. We were ready to begin the day traveling around and looking at waterfalls.

This is the Vista House and the Columbia Gorge in the backround. I wish it had been a warmer and clearer but I hardly rained so that was really nice.


Steve showed me how to take pamorama pictures with my camera. They turn out great. The camera sews the three pictures together and thy turn out like this.














Latourell Falls was amazing. I have never been so clase to a waterfall before. We could have walked right into it but we didn't...it was pretty cold.






Multnomah Falls.
















Seaside beach was COLD. It was a little rainy too and windy so Steve set up the tripod , took a couple pictures and we got out of there. We spent a little time looking around the shops in Seaside and then headed over to Astoria.




















No caption needed:)










My new hair color.

























This was in Astoria. It's called the Column but I can't remember why it's there. Normally people can walk up to the top but the stairs were closed because they were fixing them.
