Lavender Row

Dmitrii2 Comments

About 30 minutes north from the Mt Hood there are a few lavender farms. They are pretty darn awesome. I believe this farm is called “Lavender Valley”, probably because Mt Hood is in its backyard, day and night. No Mt Hood in it today, but it is coming sometime soon. This is a bee paradise, they are swirling all over these flowers collecting some sweet honey. You can see a few of them in this photo as well. We got some lavender oil and some bags with smelly flowers for presents back home. This area is probably very popular with Portlanders, nice place to have second vacation home or a small cabin for weekend getaways.

Pretty Little Stars

Back in August while visiting Oregon coast I took a lot of pictures of star fish. They are kind of cool looking. So I’m going to process them one at a time and show it here. A bit missing that place.

Low Tide

We had very nice time in Oregon, especially along the Oregon coast. There are many little towns on the coast, we spent a few nights in little town called Yachats. I spent a few hours during low tides looking at the crashing waves and hundreds of different size and color of starfish. This is the first time in my life that I’ve been to this coast and had a chance to explore all of it coolness.

Downtown Portland is very busy and interesting place. There are a lot of restaurants and a lot of night life. We just had dinner at Lebanese restaurant and were walking back to hotel when I decided to stop for a quick shot. I can’t recall which intersection it is, if someone from read this, you’ll probably recognize the landmarks, the most obvious is the train tracks, and the second giveaway is the “Rock Bottom” restaurant. To see the sign you’ll need to open this image in my photo gallery at much higher resolution – just click on it and it will take you there.
