Oregon is full of so much beauty! 
It has gotten such a bad rap because of all the rain, especially this year, but even with the rain, and most likely, because of the rain, it has some of the most beautiful sights that I have seen, including the places I have traveled to outside the state and country. A while back I told myself that I need to start going to the places that are right here at my own doorstep. I need to take more pictures of where I live. Not that I plan on giving up traveling away from here, I'm just gong to make sure and use my 'Oregon time' more wisely.

Bonnie and I went on two hikes in the last two weeks, both less than an hour from my place. The top photos are of
our hike to Mirror Lake on Mt. Hood.
This is Little Zigzag Falls.
This was on the way up to Little Zigzag Falls.
It was so amazing to see the places that I have only seen in photos. Now I have MY OWN photos of these places. 
This was the end of the trail for us.
I bet you didn't know the had gators in our lakes!!! : )
Mt. Hood was not the only thing Mirror Lake mirrors. It was so beautiful from all directions.
These flowers were growing in ROCKS!
Why did it take me so long to see these places for myself!???!!!
