I’m in love with Oregon.
Over near La Grande, Oregon.
Terrible air quality on vacation.
Moisture accumulating on subfreezing surfaces.
Time shaped us differently.
All of the colors.
Cold AF!
Dreary shit and high water.
Swim time!
Air pollution out west.
At the wildlife viewing area near North Powder, Oregon.

It’s trees…
They go on and on.

Contrast
37 winters in and I fucking hate em.

Different surfaces in the same conditions.

Shot from the Deadman Pass Lookout. It’s the strato-volcano all the way on the left when ya can see ’em.
Nothing to see here.
A path of light.
Destroyed Habitat
Those iconic falls minus all of the people.
High speed driving?
Damn and cold.
A trickling stream slowly flows by.
A walk through red bentonite hills.

Get outside and check shit out!
Sometimes its all too much.

Destroyed Habitat
An alpine lake in winter.

During the dry season.
Or, it goes to La Grande.
Volcanic remains.
A fuzzy memory.
National Parks Amaze.

I spend a lot of time exploring areas my husband works in. La Grande, to Joseph, to Nampa, to Granite, to The Dalles, to Portland, to Tri-Cities, to Walla Walla, to ?????, and everywhere in between!
Cliche barf city.
In amazing Oregon.
Wondering Around Out West
On a cloudy day.
