Spotted in Portland. I think there are two varieties of Smoketrees in the US. Interesting tree. I actually walked past this small tree, stopped and turned around to walk back and take a look. It was like it took my mind a few seconds to register what I saw. Leaf

I really don’t know the name of this plant. Was captured in the Sabin area of Portland from someone’s yard I walked past. Unknown blossom

Before I post some of the images I took in Portland last week I thought I would share this one of our granddaughter. She is a great subject to shoot. Madeleine

Cooling Off On a rare, warm ( dare I say ‘hot’) day in the Pacific NW these two children found a way to cool off. This water fountain is in downtown Portland, Oregon, adjacent to the Riverplace Walkway .

Jockey

Entrance Door

Alameda St., in NE Portland, is a pretty posh neighborhood. I guess posh does not exclude being a bit different? The entrance door reminds me of a checker board. I am not sure why someone would place a life-size replica of a jockey on their property.

Piglet on Roof

Piglet on a roof on Alameda St., Portland, Oregon. I’m not sure what, if any, is the significance of a cement piglet on one’s roof, but there you have it.

Panel Van

Guy’s Panel Van. Parked on Alberta St. in NE Portland. I think this van is a 1954 Chevy, but not sure. It looks like a van my neighbor used to have for his business. UPS also used this 1954 van.
