Portland, Oregon in bloom

Posted by: Faith Swymer on: April 29, 2009

Here are some photos from my trip this past weekend. I was overwhelmed on my walk from the Max to the home of my sister-in-law and her husband… strolling past the neighborhood pubs and restaurants, it was littered with petals from the bright, bold blooms (alliteration?) from the trees overhead and the scattered gardens. So much so, I had to take some photos of the different colors I saw from my walk from the townhouse up to Washington Park. Too bad the roses in the Japanese Rose Garden weren’t in bloom.
