A glance today at what will soon be in the past! And while I have loved the years I have spent in Seattle, I am looking forward to returning to my former home in Portland, Oregon! I will be moving back there on May 16th and I am excited! But for today a look at some tulips a beautiful harbor and beach, casinos  and SNOW!! I hope all of you have a wonderful week!!

    Oregon is such a beautiful State. I can well imagine all the scenic photographs you will take in and around Portland once you get settled. Getting settled is always a bit tricky but how wonderful that you have family to help. The busyness of the move and change in scenery will help ease the sadness over Sam.

    Love the new header!!!

    These piccies are so pretty - but have to say the tulips are capturing this eye. Simple and straightforward, yet clear and bright.

    Hugs, YAM

    swapping one beautiful location to another is a good problem, if you would call it that. hope the move is smooth and you don't get too stressed out or dog tired.

    Wherever we are, if we have lived in other places, we always miss somewhere else. Enjoy your rain rich Seattle while you are there. The skies from your elevated above have been a great delight.

    A nice collage, Sylvia, much more professionally done than the one I cobbled together today.

    You will love your new home, too. Because you are an adaptable girl.
