Portland Oregon






My final blog on Portland. The weather didn't cooperate for GREAT pictures but i can still show you the lines of the city. It is such a great mixture of old and new.....one on top of the other. There is a great parkway that is looked over by Teddy Roosevelt. Check out the building with the 'painting' of Lewis & Clark on it. Honestly, this is a flat surface. You can't detect the flat area until you are parallel with the wall. There are also a great number of bridges crossing the river. The moss is everywhere, on trees, curbs, steps - sides of houses. On one Saturday Charlie and Aveline took me out to Seaside and Cannon Beach to eat at Mo's and see the ocean. These pictures are of Haystack Rock. And finally we went to a New Years Eve party with their up the hill neighbor. The table was set so pretty I couldn't help but take a picture of it. All and all....it was a wonderful 12 days.
