Two Months...Yikes...

...where does the time go?  Old adage but true.  For one, I went back to Oregon for a week.  There was a death in the family but the trip was not sad.  In fact, it was lovely.  I miss my home very much !  Here are few reasons why:

Foxglove along highway 38 - on the way to the coast.  Ferns, scotch bloom and firs in the background.

 

 

The Pacific Ocean, late afternoon, with the evening fog coming in at an overlook near Reedsport.  Perhaps this appears a little too gloomy but I love it...the mystery and majesty.

 

 

The Umpqua River at Elkton.  Lazy in the summer, crystal clear and serene.



 

 

Shore Acres State Park, Charleston.  This beautiful botanical garden is home to a glorius rose garden but the backdrop of the cedars and ferns attract me more.



 

 

These roses are for Uncle Rudy - the reason I was there and a wonderful man he was.

 

 

Now the reasons I am here...Ivy on her trick bike and baby Devlin learning to love his feet!  My doll babies.

 

Happy days til next time we meet on the airwaves!
