Some Little Creatures


Thirty years ago, 
when I fell in love with a boy
and he fell in love with me right back,
I didn't know that one of the greatest gifts he would give me
would be his home state of Oregon.

We've never lived here,
but we visit each year and I love this place.
I love it's great-big-huge-see-forever sky
and all the stunning vistas that go along with that.
But I also love it's little creatures.
I so enjoy my time with my camera, the tiny birds and the dragonflies.
Here are some of my favorites.











Posting a tad late...this vacation stuff is really messing with my blog schedule!!

  1. Amazing captures!!!

    I never thought I would love Oregon as much as I do. When we moved here 5 years ago, I was very reluctant. In the past year we have returned to both Vermont and Michigan - states we considered someday returning to - only to realize how much we love Oregon.

  2. Your photos are amazing. I kind of had to squeeze my eyes shut at the dragonflies, but they are all fabulous moments.

  3. I love your photography! So pretty!

    I have lived in Ohio my entire life, but my husband is from Missouri. It amazes me how much I love the state of Missouri. There is so much to offer and it is gorgeous. We like to visit once a year and have even considered moving.

  4. So glad you have this honey hole of a place that really restores you, but awakens you, too! It's so nice to get away so no need to apologize for enjoying the time off.
