Depending on your perspective the Portland Building is either getting rehabilitated with a much needed facelift or it’s status as the icon for post-modern architecture is being destroyed. Here is the work in progress. #portlandbuilding #postmodern #postmodernism #portland #oregon #historicpreservation

Taking a few moments to breathe deep and be inspired by the beauty of Lithia Park #lithiapark #ashland #oregon

Symmetry makes me smile #troutlake #washington

What summertime Fridays are ALL about! #friends #food #gatherings #love #conversation #laughter

Really felt the beauty and wonder of Multnomah Falls on my first visit since last summer’s devastating wildfire that almost destroyed this iconic Oregon landmark. So lush and reflective of Oregon’s essence. #multnomahfalls #columbiarivergorge

Backyard 🐰 sighting! Usually I only spy her in the morning from the kitchen window but she’s just hanging out in the yard with me this afternoon scampering between hiding spots and eating willow leaves on the lawn 💗🐰💗

Summer fairy dust #momentofzen #viewfrommygarden #portland #oregon

I had a front and center seat at this bar at Heathrow to watch the royal wedding! I was surrounded by lovely ladies who were as excited as I was to watch the spectacle. Gin and tonics all around to celebrate, and hugs when each of us had to head to our gates. At first the bartender thought we were ridiculous but he grew to love us! #royalwedding2018 #london #england

Saying goodbye to the drawing room at my charming hotel. Headed to Heathrow a bit earlier than usual so I can catch the Royal Wedding before I fly home. #numbersixteen #london #royalwedding2018 #homewardbound

Good Night London... you hold my heart! ❤️🇬🇧❤️

I'm a travel-passionate landscape historian, photographer and artist who travels near (my home base in the Pacific Northwest) and far dishing out experiences that I find inspiring about place, spirit, history, fears, dreams, and that ever elusive thing called balance.
