One of the main reasons to travel to Oregon in August is to pick peaches, and we found a family owned orchard on our drive between Tillamook and Portland. And why go to Portland in the summer? To see the rose garden, of course.
Happy Gene with his box full of peaches.
Parked among the peach trees. We were lucky to get the RV turned around without having to unhitch the tow car.
Look at the size of these beauties . . . my hand seems small in comparison. Portland's rose garden at Washington Park is 4.5 acres with 7,000 plantings and 550 varieties of roses. It was spectacular!
It was the perfect day. Cool air, bright sunshine and a slight breeze with the scent of roses everywhere.
