We wrapped up warm—it was a cold, cold day

as we went for a walk in Tualatin Hills nature park.

Even the trees were wearing their fur coats

fur mittens too

and shawls and scarves.

Then the battery ran out and we’d left the spares at home.

The trees got all dressed up for your Mum.

With the weather we're having the mittens seem appropriate!
A lovely if chilly stroll through the woods with you two was most enjoyable, Sheila.

Your mum looks so elegant. Love her red hat.

Both of you. Great mother-daughter photo!

What a wonderful place. You both looked at home there (if a trifle cold.) I especially like the trail meandering through the trees.

Oh, nice walk. It's supposed to be almost 60 today!!!! The sunrise was beautiful. Have you ever explored Tryon Creek Park? Between Lake Oswego and Portland (near Lewis & Clark College) on Terwilliger EXTENSION. You should go during the Trillium Festival...early April, I believe.

Beautiful - looks like a great place for a walk

Those pictures are incredible. They really are. And the one of you and your Mom is so good. I feel like I know you better now :)

Looks like a neat place for a walk. Too bad the batteries ran out so soon.

The Trillium Festival that Ellie mentioned sounds neat. Too bad I can't get down that way.
