Saturday at Sauvie's Island




My summer adventures continued with the scent of lavender, wheat fields, beautiful flowers, wildlife, bridges, bodies of water some vast, some not and mountain tops. There's so much to be seen here in the great Pacific Northwest. You don't have to travel far or be loaded with cash. You only have, to have a heart that desires to see it, experience it. This is truly, God's country. Thanks to my chum Jamie for another fantastic day! Can't wait until our next adventure!

A hop, skip, and a jump





I love the Pacific Northwest in all it's splendour. On Saturday, my girlfriend,  took me on a day trip to The Gorge. The drive itself is beautiful! We settled at a spot called, Rowena Crest with picnic goods we picked up at New Seasons Market. The weather was perfect, the sights were spectacular, and I was in good company. 









Then on Sunday after church, another girlfriend and I ate our lunch at Peninsula Park in the Rose Garden. There's so many wonderful spots to explore and enjoy here in the Pacific NW.  So lucky to have all this beauty just a hop, skip, and a jump away!

medical burden every year.
