What The Heck Am I Doing?

This blog all started with an idea, as most probably do. I wanted to make a coffee table book of my scenic photos from around Oregon. It would have been called "Oregon 365: From Beach to Burns". I want to capture Oreogn in its finest all during the year. I have lived in Oregon for 15 years, and although I admire the beauty throughout all the United States and World, I think Oregon is a very diverse and beautiful place to live. We have lush evergreen forests, peaks that rise into the sky, gorgeous coastline, rolling hills, valleys, desert plateaus, canyons, rivers, lakes, and streams a plenty! There is so much in Oregon to admire, I feel you can go anywhere and find beauty. So that is the purpose of this blog, to admire and recognize the diverse beauty throughout Oregon.

Day Fifteen

This picture was taken December 2008 with a Samsung S85. After all it is winter right now, even it the weather in the Willamette Valley doesn’t show any signs of it. It does on occasion snow here, as this picture is proof of; it was taken at my parents house in northwest Corvallis. We had loads of snow that winter, a stark contrast to the winter this year. Every year I hope for a white Christmas, and in 2008 I got it!
