Awoke to a beautiful day.
Sunshine and warm weather makes me happy.
So do roses.
roses more roses
And mountains.
ground view of Mt. Hood
And adventures.

    It looks like you had a blast! I'd love to go whitewater rafting some day! We have looked into it, but our youngest daughter was still too little to meet the age requirements. Hopefully someday we'll do it!

There are a few things that remain the same from stadium to stadium..."the wave" (Braves' attendees do not always get into this, which is very di...
