On another note. I've been looking at renting my downstairs rooms out so if anyone knows of anyone looking for a place let me know!! I'm only a mile from Max as well. And have a wonderful backyard to hang out in! :)
My dad won't make it up here for conventions this year. :( He ended up with pneumonia a couple of weeks ago and spent a few days in the hospital. Long story short the fluid is still somewhat there and possibly building up again. It's aspiration pneumonia, acid re-flux is draining into his lungs and from the sound of it the biggest reason is because his esophagus is not doing well at all. Apparently it doesn't look close to what it should. Soooo..... I'm not sure his lungs will ever completely clear up since old habits are very hard to change, especially with dementia involved.
Get to see the grandkids tomorrow so hopefully I can grab some pictures!
These first two pictures were thanks to a 10 mile back up to Hood River Sunday. It took us an hour to get through it! So I got lots of chances to take some pictures that I'll probably never have a chance to get again!! When I texted to let the boys know that Gresham would be running late, I found out that the boys were only a mile, if that, ahead of us! So meeting was 45 minutes late!! I'm so glad we stuck it out and didn't turn around. It was well worth it and fed the soul!!
In the Columbia Gorge!!
Across the river is Washington.

Mia is washing Pippy....
And Pippy is washing Mia. They love each other. :)
Fall raspberries are setting!
I have potatoes in here. I'm curious how this will work. I'm having issues with critters this year so hopefully they'll be safe in here!
Liatris
Finally bursting with blooms! This one has come back from last year and it took quite a while to hit their full stride.
Lots of peppers that are close to being picked.
This pepper plant has a ton of them!!
Tomato plants are huge and loaded but again I'm having a critter issue and they seem to be disappearing. :( I'm thinking next year I just need to do lots of flowers so that they lose interest in my yard!
Here is a panorama of my back yard. Looks weird but gives a good idea.
It's blooming again! The Azalea that Christina got me last year is at it again- That makes twice this year so far!!
Honeysuckle!
