Scenes from Oregon

 


I'm back home again but, thought I'd post just a few photos from my few days in Oregon.  To the right is where we stayed.  It was a rental property called The Farm House and it was really an old farm house that had been updated enough for comfort but still held on to that old country living style. 















We were there to attend a conference called the International Pinot Noir Celebration (IPNC).  It's an annual event that hadn't met for the past two years.  My good friends Julie and Dave have gone in years past but, I had never attended before.

All of the events were held on the campus of Linfield University, one of the most beautiful campuses that I've ever visited.  The grounds were full of huge trees, large rhododendron plants and baskets of flowers hanging on the light poles.  











We visited several wineries and saw lots of beautiful, big grapes on the vine.  And, in between all of that, we attended educational sessions and had fabulous, chef-prepared meals.

It was a fun few days!

Capturing post box used to be a passion of mine. I found them as evidence of civilisation.
