Gilkey Covered Bridge over Thomas Creek
Gilkey Covered Bridge over Thomas Creek
Ferns and wet logs, not the greatest material to work with.

But even from these lemons you can concoct a little lemonade.
This is a secluded little spot surrounded on all sides by suburban neighborhoods.  If there are any animals here, I'm certain they live in condos.

Still, it's a pleasant little walk under a canopy of firs, and perfect for a late fall or early winter afternoon.
Walk across bridge... great view!!!

Staff was friendly and the hotel is new, clean, and exceeded expectations. Great location that's walking distance from my favorite smaller venues like Star Theater, Roseland Theater, and Dante's. Will definitely be staying here whenever I need to stay in Portland form now on.

Sunrise from the upper tram terminal at Oregon Health Science University. Timing is everything in photography. I have waited a year to get the right timing and weather for this shot. For those fortunate enough to ride the tram daily this is a common sight. Mount Hood in the background.

Don't miss visiting the USS Blueback while at OMSI. View the I-5 Marquam bridge. Portland names all their bridges. I guess we go across bridges so often we feel a personal connection to them. It's one of the things that makes our city "special"
