Vacation's over...

Our vacation in Portland was winding down, so we decided to have a day outdoors. We headed up to the park on the hill with Owen in the pack.

The Japanese Gardens were nice. There were some beautiful areas, including this large koi pond. There were lots of colors for Owen to see... but perhaps the people watching was better. At one of the other ponds, a woman was backing up to take a photograph and she fell in. Ha!

We also visited the Rose Garden... not the Blazers' home, but the real Rose Garden. The roses went on and on and on...

They even climbed up and over the entrances to the gardens. The aroma was wonderful...

All in all, it was a great week with great things to do and wonderful news from the Stacey and crew. We'll be back, Portland... We'll be back.
