Mountain Meadow

This is actually a wonderful time to go up into the mountains. The flora is outstanding, the air is fresh, and the mosquitoes aren't out in force yet!  ...and then, we can't leave out Osita!

Trip to Sisters, Oregon

These are a few shots that Lynn-Marie took yesterday as we drove up to Three Creeks Lake above the town of Sisters in the Oregon Cascade Mountains. It's still cold up there but it was a fun day for all, a much needed getaway! The ridge in the background is the Tam McArthur Rim. Just beyond it (not visible here) are Broken Top mountain and the Three Sisters (three mountains named Faith, Hope and Charity) all of which are in a wilderness area.

 

This is Kiani, the mother of Osita, one of the two Belgian Tervurens who also enjoyed the outing.

 

Two young deer and their mama were also enjoying the day.

 

Finally, all the way up to the lake. There were only a couple of row boats on the lake (power boats aren't permitted) and one person fishing from shore.

A much needed break from "everything".
