Signs of Spring



Season Opener
Was like old home week.


Portland is exploding with color.

A local barber shop introduced me to a local distillery, move over Gentleman Jack.
Chicken/artichoke mozzarella sausage, baked veggies, cottage cheese and dill pickles.  Your typical Spring fare.

Another Spring favorite, Steak w/onions & mushrooms.

Meanwhile, back in Portland< Louis helps prepare the garden. He's using a tracked back hoe and a dump truck to move the dirt around.

The cold frame for the seedlings needs assembly.

A walk in the park near Lewis & Clark.



Then it's back to Bend and the bike.

Because it's perfect spring weather!
