On the Road Again
Finally! My car and I are reunited. The final bill to the other guy’s insurance company will be about $10,000. We couldn’t wait to get out of Enumclaw, even though we had a very nice time there.
We went down the east side of Mt. St. Helens, which is a lovely, winding drive. The mountain was venting a little steam while I was there. It has been 26 years since the big eruption, and the surrounding forest is slowly recovering. I really enjoyed the stark dead tree trunks among the beautiful flowers.
We’re in Portland now. I have some roots here–my mother was born and raised here and my grandparents are buried here.

I know you are glad to have her back.
That is a great picture of nature in action -- the blooming flowers and green foliage amid the snags and dead falls. Thanks for the shot.
It's great to know that you are back on the road. While in Portland, I hope you have a chance to check out my favorite bookstore -- Powell's.
What beautiful pictures you have taken. Thank you so much for sharing them. I hope to someday travel to such beautiful places and take my own pictures.
