Love the murals. Thanks for showing them. LOL at beer, pot and pizza. Sounds like a great combination. I always thought Oregon was a quite a liberal place until the latest news from Portland. Probably like what happened to poor Charlottesville, another sweet little town. The bathroom sign is PERFECT. Seriously “whatever”. As you know I LOVE waterfalls. Love your pictures. Sounds like the park for me. Sympathize with Jim, I lost my sunglasses on a hike too and they were my favorites. Love the races. What a fun place!Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00328866430156879312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9062337474734435253.post-60397848646695362082018-08-06T13:55:37.624-07:002018-08-06T13:55:37.624-07:00We just got back from the Garden and Jim was actua...We just got back from the Garden and Jim was actually glad he went!
