THE CANBY FAIR:
 |
| What would the fair be without good ol' corn-on-the-cob?!? |
 |
| Typical fair weather...hot, dry, and dusty... |
 |
| This mommy/baby pair were so cute...especially when baby began kicking up her little heels and bucking!!! |
 |
| A woman spinning in the old frontier village. |
|
A WEEKEND IN LEAVENWORTH:
 |
| Jo-bug, cooling her little tootsies in the river... |
 |
| ...and just generally enjoying the water and the sunshine... |
 |
Just the three of us...missing the two of you!!! |
THE PORTLAND ROSE GARDEN:
 |
| The colors in this rose were stunning!!! |
 |
| Shabby chic, anyone?!? |
 |
| This one reminds me of Narnia (minus the snow and plus the roses). |
 |
| Sunshine on a stem. |
 |
| Delicate and old-fashioned... |
 |
| Smiles among the roses!!! |
 |
| Dad, being very patient with the photographers... |
 |
| More shabby chic... |
 |
| The shades of pink and peach are amazing!!! |
 |
| ..."mighty like a rose..." |
 |
| This plaque is at the bottom of the stairs as you leave the garden, and when you're among those lovely roses, it feels so true!!! |
WATERFRONT CLASSICS:
 |
| You know that summer is almost over when the Oregon Symphony does its concert in Tom McCall Park!!! |
 |
| We had a picnic (including sandwiches from Great Harvest) as we listened... |
 |
| Three couples did ballet during part of the music. |
 |
| Oh, to be so graceful!!! |
 |
| As usual, the night ended with Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture, accompanied by fireworks. Fantastic!!! |
What a fun collage of summer! I especially love the "Narnia" picture! And the concert in the park sounds like so much fun. I must try to go next year! :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures, Ma! I especially love your rose and ballet ones. Thanks for the amazingly fun summer (and fall, too). I can't wait for more fun : )
