Slooow shutter speed

It's funny how when you look back in life, that certain inconvenience wasn't as hard as you though it was. So I guess I'll take it slow...For example, back in Corvallis, Monroe was "it". Everything was close by, you didn't need to walk that far, there just weren't any other possible options. Now living up in the greater Portland area (I know, always comparing...), it's almost required to drive 30+ minutes to gather with friends. What a refreshing night to get up and walk to places I never would have considered.

Who says you can't find beauty in your work place? While I did learn the skill of renal dose adjustment, warfarin protocol, and platelet/lovenox monitoring, it was "amazing" how there was just enough time to capture these pictures.

Wamic is for lovers

Rock Creek Reservoir in Mount Hood National Forest is about 20 miles east of Portland. Landscapes included rolling hills, canyons, cows, big foot, and horses. Recreation included hiking along Badger Creek Wilderness, Rafting in Maupin... and visiting Wamic, a population of 36 people.

There is much appreciation when a camping trip goes better than expected, especially with fantastic food and great company. Who says that you can't camp in style? Team Good Wood has outdone itself.
