Yellow Roses
A pair of yellow roses from the Rose Garden in Portland, Or.
Ballerina
This flower reminds me of the song, ‘Tiny Dancer’.
Columbus Blown Off Course
The true story emerges: Columbus discovers mansion in NE Portland. The indigenous population of the Sabin district confiscated the Santa Maria and placed it on a mansion rooftop on Alameda St. Columbus was later discovered locked in the media room of the mansion, forced to watch Western movies on a 55″ LCD TV.
Late Summer
Tree lined streets in the Sabin area of NE Portland. Soon the leaves will be wind-blown about and perhaps raked into large piles for the street sweeper.
Wild Flowers
A couple of wild flowers along the banks of the Duwamish River.
Cofferdam Wall
A section of the cofferdam built for the construction of the new South Park Bridge.
House for a Non-Human
Even the bird houses near Alameda St. are a cut above your average aviary fair. This one looks like it needs some TLC.
Alameda House
This house was a bit neglected a few years ago. New owners gave it a little curb appeal. One of the larger homes on Alameda St. in NE Portland.
Thomas Street P-Patch
A few of the flowers out this early Saturday morning in late August. This garden is really wonderful oasis of colors and scents east of downtown Seattle on Capitol Hill.
