Fernhill Wetlands

 

Not a cloud today, the morning was still cold, nut afternoon should be in the high 60s, so we exercise here get about 1.5 miles while taking pictures of this wetlands, we forgot our binoculars, we should just put it in the car.

Ducks and Canadian Geese

 

I want to exercise by walking at least one round (about 1.0 mile) also I want to capture the ominous clods, almost at the end of my walk the sky is getting darker and light rain starts. The colors are not there yet, but at least I capture some ducks and Canadian geese migrating from the north.

Artworks in Lake Oswego

 

The weather is cloudy and just a very light rain, so I entice Pokie to have lunch in Lake Oswego, it turned out that Pokie found a Japanese Restaurant owned by the Japanese people and the menu is simple, it turned out a very good food - OISHII..

Sakura #2

 

Today is the second cloudy day without any rain, so off I go to Walmart and its surrounding to take more pictures of the cherry blossoms.

Sakura in My Backyard

 

The winter "heatwave" transforms the cherry trees overnight to be the best blooms this year. When I saw the forecast that today will be cloudy, the light bulb inside my head said "GO", the result is nothing but full blooms, without too many petals on the ground.

Astoria - a night at the coast

 

When I saw the forecast that it will be in the 70s at Beaverton, then at the coast must be nice without the threat of rain. It has been the warmest day in March. On the way to the beach, we visited Fr. Dave in Scappoose, I was 30 minutes too early.
