Oregon, I love you.

I find myself deeper and deeper in love with this state I live.

Traveling around a bit this summer finds me in amazing places

that make me say, YES PLEASE.

I love this state with it's steep peaks, rolling hills, lush valleys,

rivers, creeks, and tree after tree after tree.

These daisies remind me of the film "Harold and Maude"

(one of my all time favorites)

I love Maude's quote about the beauty in all the differences.

 "Look. See, some are smaller, some are fatter, some grow to the left, 

some to the right, some even have lost some petals. 

All *kinds* of observable differences."

I hope you are finding places that inspire you and refresh you after the long winter.
