The Rhododendron Garden


Yesterday the weather hit 80 degrees in Oregon! (Yes, here in the Northwest our lives revolve around the weather - that's why I mention it so much. I'd link to all the posts where I talk about the weather, but I'm pretty sure I'd have to link to nearly all my posts.) Josh and I are homebodies, so usually we love nothing more than spending the evening at home, lounging around on the couch and watching TV and reading. But 80-degree weather is one of the few things that gets us outside! We took a trip out to the Crystal Springs Rhododendron Garden in SE Portland last night, and had a picnic dinner on a bench next to the pond while watching the sunset.

  3. it's not just you, we are all obsessed with talking about the weather. Though I think my weather lately sounds more like "Gray Skies" than yours. It's been overcast for what feels like an eternity. I mean, yes, there were two nice days, but they were in between 10 days of rain.

    So, loving your sun, and sandals.
