So, I thought to say I am sorry for no new posts....but ya know...it IS summer, which is next to heaven, in the Pacific Northwest! But for those of you who insist on explanation...here you go...I would have posted but......I had to go out to Daffodil Hill Farms and pick bundles (well, maybe large bails) of fresh lavender to spread all over my house and share with friends!
I would have posted....but there was the World Beat Festival and then Da Vinci Days and then the Portland Rose Festival and then......well, you know!
I would have posted but......I was out strolling through the strawberry fields in 80 degree weather, under the light blue skies dappled with fluffy clouds, picking berries (and eating a few) right off the vines.I would have posted but.....well, you get the picture! If you are waiting for posts....uh...pray for rain in Oregon? Seriously, though, I hope you are all having a joyous summer. Take time to relax and be good to yourselves.

I love summertime...it's my favorite time of year....(mostly because I hate being cold...lol) Loved the photos. Glad to see you are enjoying your summer.
Hey you are on the board!

It's 85 and that lake spot looks pretty inviting. Where is it?

Sweet: We camp at a lake called Detroit Lake west of the Willamette Valley on the way to Eastern Oregon!
Can I have some too?!! I LOVE lavender. Is there a daffodil hill in Oregon too? We have one here in California in the gold country and it was my absolute favorite haunt when I lived there...
I am soooo jealous.
