Lavender Fields

It was a beautiful Sunday at the lavender farm. We had a nice time enjoying the smell and the vista!

Rachel and Jacques harvesting lavender.

Jacques watering our garden which has done well. We ate our first peas yesterday.

Visit with "Grandma Bonnie"

Bonnie and Jacques pose under the marquee after dinner at the Bagdad theater on Hawthorne St. where Anthony Bourdain was appearing to sign his new book.

Grandma Bonnie and Jacques have fun at Cannon Beach...

Tidepools at Cannon Beach next to Haystack rock where starfish (you can see them upside down in the picture above) and anemone cling to the rocks. Jacques and Tanner inspect the rock covered in mussels and barnacles above.

The bridge at the rhododendron garden. Voodoo Doughnuts - Bonnie and Jacques share a voodoo doll.

Hike to Pittock Mansion

Jacques being silly...

Sunday afternoon we hiked from Mcleay park up to Pittock Mansion

The back side of the mansion with Jacques walking up the steps... The beautiful view from the top with Mount Hood in the distance. It looks like a floating backdrop but it's real, I promise :)
