dip and glide along the Deschutes River
in Bend, Oregon.

Day Two in Bend Oregon
After having a nice breakfast we headed towards
the Old Mill District-
We walked and walked all day
passing by patient dogs waiting ....
Walking by old schools having
a second chance of usefulness....
The city of Bend has been smart at reusing
old buildings, rather than tearing them down
and blending old with new....
Artists do the same creatively recycling
old parts into new art.....
One example of affordable housing
Meanwhile geese look for lunch while
families float by on the Deschutes River...
a lovely way to spend the day....
Finally we discovered a great neighborhood
watering hole suitable for families
The Riverside Market....
Day One With a Few Photos.....
We are on a fun little road trip-
a weeks long vacation-
first going to Bend,
then to Baker City
and finally to Portland
for a friends wedding.
Going from Hwy 62 to Hwy 230
we were going past Crater Lake..
so we paused for a nice detour-
First we saw Mount Thielsen
before turning off for Crater Lake-
the deepest lake in the US
Driving through the Pumice Desert
and finally stopping to look at Wizard Island
and Crater Lake
On our return to Hwy 230
we stopped for a nice photo of
Mount McLoughlin.
More pics tomorrow!

Once again on the road......
Alpen Glow on Mt Shasta
Once again we've worked hard and deserve a little break.
This time we are headed to Bend, Baker City and eventually
Portland, Oregon for a friends wedding.
We will be gone for 8 days and I doubt I'll be doing a lot
of blogging. If I do....be pleasantly surprised.
Meanwhile have a great week !!!
Road Work Ahead-Expect Delays...

Magpie Tales #68
When my brother was a little kid
his Teddy's eye went missing
I chose to sew a new eye
Onto the little bear's head.
Teddy was a good little bear
holding so still and quiet
As I made a new eye using
some dark blue thread.
Today Teddy looks very old
and more than a little used
but his little blue eye twinkles
and looks so very amused.

This past weekend we drove over to Bend, Oregon.
While we were there visiting family, I met
up with Helen- one of my blogger friends.
Helen and I had such a nice visit and it was
great being able to connect in person!
Here's a photo of the two of us!
