April Showers bring out the flowers in Portland, Oregon

Ahhhhhh,

                     The Sights......

                           The Sounds......

                                  The Smells......... of Spring

                                         Nature's beautiful reminder that Winter is over and Spring is finally HERE !!!

I love going to Portland this time of year. The flowers are all in bloom and the city is gearing up for the Annual Rose Festival. The Portland Rose Festival celebrates 100 years beginning May 31st, 2007. My family and I will be in attendance as this parade is too spectacular to miss. You can also read more about this year's festival activities in this wonderful article by Valerie Harvey. Just one more reason to live in beautiful Oregon.
