River View - Watery/Outdoor Wednesday


We drove down to Central Oregon over the weekend. On the drive back it was cloudy and overcast but very little rain. We stopped a few times to stretch our legs and of course take photos.

The Columbia River divides some parts of Oregon and Washington. We drove back on the Washington side of the river.

I like that second photo, all those little rocks and pebbles with flowers and green thingys really appeals to me. i am trying to decide what is at the top of the photo, a sign maybe?

I love the pics! That 2nd photo, makes me think of the Oregon Trail days, with horse and buggy. And then with the lane way running along side, it's simply beautiful.

Very interesting pictures. These are strange little flowers. Wildflowers are my favorite, and my favorite picture is the next to the last.

Oh, you make me homesick for Washington State. We are moving back...to Aberdeen sometime in the next few months. I have missed the 4 beautiful seasons Washington has...and especailly the beaches! Montana is another world away from all that beauty you live in. Thank you for the great photos.
