Gorgeous Sights at the Portland Rose Gardens

May 29, 2005 – 12:29 am

Codi and I went to the Portland Rose Gardens today. We were very happy with what we saw! Most of the roses were in full bloom (thanks to lots of rain and sun) and the whole area seemed alive.

White rose…

Yellow rose…

Another yellow rose… (I know I have to work on my captions, but I’m tired…)

Fuschia-colored rose with golden center…

Me taking pics… (and for some reason holding my breath)

Codi took a picture of me taking a picture of her.

A bee (which reminds me of the organic pumpkin honey and fireweed honey we bought at the farmers’ market this morning)…

Nice pink rose…

A very friendly and brave squirrel…

Inside of a steel drum…

Fern…

Closeup of a leaf…

Codi surrounded by roses…

Ha ha - a fat guy tired tourist fell asleep on a bench.

Shelter under the trees…

Codi with her, my, our zoom lens. Isn’t she so cute?!

I don’t know what it is, but Codi photographed it and I really, really like it!

Almost done… looking forward to a snow cone! =)
