Parks

There are a whole lot of Parks in Portland. Yesterday we explored two. The first was called Washington Park, it is a part of a bigger park called Forest Park, which is right next to our new house, which we haven't moved into yet. Washington Park is veined with trails, and my favorite one that we went on is called "Wildwood" Here is a picture of us there:





Then we went up to an old mansion that is surrounded by park and panoramic views of the city, the valley, and the snow-covered mountains beyond. This truly is beautiful country.

While walking, I saw what appeared to be my very favorite wild berry, red caps. I wanted to eat a whole bunch of them, but decided against it just in case. Although the flora seems so similar to Vermont's, I thought it best to wait until I get my dirty paws on a field guide.

Now we're off to the beach. I'll report back later on that!
