I totally forgot to post a Photography Friday last week and I actually had one to show you! Raf’s parents came to visit us two Sundays ago and we had the best time with them! The day was absolutely gorgeous, for once. We took them to one of our favorite local parks, Wildwood and walked the Streamwatch Trail. The wildflowers are blooming in the forest here in Oregon, despite the few flurries of snowflakes we’ve been experiencing. It’s really beautiful. I’m looking forward to the day when I can get back up to the Pacific Crest Trail on Mt. Hood and see the glorious lupines.

I finally felt compelled to take my camera with me on a hike last weekend. It’s spring in Oregon and there are flowers starting to bloom in the forest. It’s lovely. Now that it’s getting nicer (and raining less) I will probably take more pictures. I haven’t really been in the mood for photography for months. The reason, most likely, being that it’s always rainy and dark here. Water and DSLRs don’t mix so much.
Other scattered thoughts:
- if you follow me on other sites you might already know that I’m thinking about ditching Facebook. I go back and forth on it. If I ever get a chance, I will write up a blog post on it.
- Thanks for your lovely comments about my poem. It was kind of scary to put it out there like that but the positive feedback really took some of the edge off. I’ve been having fun recording videos. Again, scary to do but nice to get out of my comfort zone a little.
Happy Friday!

Why, hello there! I’ve been absent the past few weeks, haven’t I. Well, I have good reason. There are changes coming! Good changes! Exciting changes! I got a new job and I am moving to Oregon in about 3 weeks. I am so excited! It’s a Children’s Librarian job in Sandy, which is a beautiful community at the base of Mt. Hood. I can’t wait to show you pictures and tell you all about my new home.
The next month is going to be very busy. I have decided to just not worry about the blog and photography and those kinds of things. We have to 1)find a place to live. 2)figure out what we are going to do with our house. 3)pack and move. I need to focus my attention on these three tasks so I’m going to give the blog, and my 365 project, a break until I get there.
As I said, I’m looking forward to sharing my new life with all of you. See you when I get there!

I love these yellow flower that grow everywhere this time of year. These were taken in Riverside State Park underneath the shade of the Ponderosa Pines.
