Yesterday was all sun and clear blue sky. Today, was an ever-changing sky. Sunny, no wind. Then the wind kicked up, the clouds moved. The sun peaked out, then was gone again. Clouds or not, it never once felt like rain may come. A lot of brown pelicans out on the water today, just like last night.

Lovely little currant tomatoes. Big sweet, juicy flavor in tomatoes the size of a pea. Have you tried these? Have you grown them?

Yellowstone National Park! Such a crazy amazing variety of terrain over 3,468 square acres in Wyoming, Montana and Idaho. The first National park in the WORLD. And established by Ulysses S. Grant in 1872.

Road trip!!! Arrived in Boise and explored a bit. Lovely warm summer night and to do on a Tuesday evening? Get in your kayak, SUP, canoe or floatie and let the current take you along the Boise River Greenbelt. Doesn’t that look like fun??!!

Wonderful catch-up lunch with @soulful_sojourns at La Bottega In downtown Vancouver, Washington. Melissa is a regular but it was my first time and a real treat for Italian-American gal from Chicago. They have it all; a cafe, a deli with all the goodies, and a wine shop. Great lunch, #daytimedrinking and much talk and laughter!

Travel Tuesday! A favorite travel memory! In Lhasa

Travel Tuesday! A favorite travel memory! In Lhasa, Tibet, we came upon some public street dancing. By this time I’d seen it in Chonqing, Wuhan, Beijing and Xian. I knew the routine … watch for a bit, get familiar with the rhythm and a few of the moves … then get out there and enjoy!
.
This is from a May and June 2019 trip!

Oh, and why not … purchase some soap and bath oil and honey and a bouquet of dried lavender.

Most of all, feel how very very luck you are.

Always love a good waterfall hike and Falls Creek

Always love a good waterfall hike and Falls Creek Falls Trail (not a typo there 🤷🏼‍♀️) was great fun. Those double waterfalls are always special. Gorgeous drive out of the Washington side of the Columbia River Gorge to Glifford Pinchot National Forest!

In the early morning, the sky was still overcast and the air cool … and it was wonderful to be in my little skin-on kayak, floating on the Willamette River!

Said I would and I did … fabulous afternoon wine tasting at Pam Walden’s Willful Wine. Well crafted, Oregon (and some Washington) grapes, wild yeasts. Pam puts a lot of passion and skill into her wines. Stop by her laid back winery near #pdx airport for a tasting.

So a little cadre of five friends had to give up our monthly catch-up brunches at the start of COVID. We zoomed our way through it, meeting online most Saturdays. A gift! As things opened up, we slowly got together, a couple of us walking, a few visiting, etc. We recently took a great little trip out to the Columbia River Gorge. But today! We resumed our brunch. And THAT too was a gift. Gotta love your #friends !! (Been awhile since I’ve been in #oldwillamettefallsdrive too)
