Cool fish painting on wood that I bought when I was in Oregon. I love the idea of this- an easy to pack piece of art that you can take home as a souvenir. I love it.

My hoya that I have had for over 30 years. It re-potted it right before we moved and it hasn't bloomed until now! Happy to have the flowers back, they have such a sweet scent.

Just a few days ago this came up on my memories. I was thinking all day of sending it to you and reminding you of what a great time we had that night at Red Rocks - (and so many other times of course). Then I heard you had gone into the hospital. I sent it, in hopes that you would see it and it would lift your spirits when you did. Now you're gone.  It doesn't seem real to me. I don't know if it ever will. Nothing much I can say right now, I'm having trouble with the words, but I'll miss you and love you forever.

Last shot of the view from Dawn's place! 

Long day of travel. I got to the airport at 10 AM or so and I didn't get home til 12:30 at night.

Running around doing a little antiquing, thrifting and sightseeing. Lovely day.

The picture of the beer is supposed to have the ocean behind it- because it was- but it didn't translate to photo!

Nice day of sightseeing around the Depoe Bay area and along the coast. Beautiful views everywhere. We were super lax about taking pictures of us - just this one!

 At the airport! 

I thought this was section 13 at first and that it might be unlucky to park here.. but then I realized it was I 3!

Getting the house painted makes us feel very claustrophobic! I can't wait until it's done and we can see outside again!

Above the house - Skyline Drive and the crescent moon. I thought it looked cool. Shortly after I found out everyone was getting pictures of the Northern Lights- I went out a few more times but never saw anything.
