for this flashback friday i'm thinking about my love for portland ~
& how we came to move up here 20 years ago ~
as a socal native of 40 years i grew up hearing my mom's stories of old portland & how she longed to go back, mr dad was also born here & our dream was always to make it up here ~
my son was happy to make the change so we brought our family of 7 pittypats up here to our own big house ~
& we never looked back ;) ~
we have loved the uniqueness of portland & this pacific northwest wonderland & this is our home ~
all the incredible trails, mountains & waterfalls ~
trees & parks, bridges & estate sales at cool old houses ~
library sales, neighborhood food carts & cool comic & vinyl shops ~
i'm a total portland nerd now :) ~
& since mr dad & i both love photography i have numerous albums of portland, oregon & washington & the pnw wonderland ~
so i thought i'd link a bunch here for anyone interested ~
each album has accompanying essential music if you're on pc or laptop ~
everything from elliott smith to the decemberists <3 ~
i apologize for any broken image links, typepad feels like it's fading away? noooo... & there are tons more up at my gumbyland & gallery website & over at my other blog ;) ~
