Bronze Bell
Photo: Bronze Bell, taken alongside Multnomah Falls. This wildflower is tiny (1/4" X 1/8"). Not quite in focus, but the colors are great! Today I joined a "Friends of the Gorge" hike along Franklin Ridge today (in the rain).
"The gorge needs more friends," said the Bronze Bell. "That's why I'm here!" (Recruitment, 0523, 2010)

Buckwheat
Photo: Buckwheat at Catherine Creek along the Columbia River. I like looking at this scene.
"OK..." whispered Mr. Jolley. "Sit down, take a deep breath and stay here for the rest of the afternoon." (Unwind the Mind, 0526, 2010)
