Portland Pleasures



Jacques contemplates a colorful tunnel, and finally decides to walk through. Today was pretty uneventful. We didn't make it to the rhodedendron gardens, but hope to see them tomorrow! The weather was beautiful again today, I can't help but think that we brought some Texas sunshine to the area!
Here are a couple of garnishes left over from our meal yesterday. A goldfish made of tomato skins and a radish embellishment.
Yesterday we parked on the street and found this lovely planter box attached to a telephone pole. It is intricately carved with 3 different designs, all of impressive craftsmanship. You have to zoom in to appreciate it. This is one of the reasons we like Portland so much...literally art on every corner and telephone pole!
