      Thank you kindly, my friend! Yes, Oregon is a beautiful place to live. Snow usually occurs above 3,000 to 4,000 feet…usually no white stuff in the Willamette Valley at lower elevations. I’m from Montana, so the winter’s in Oregon are mild by comparison 🙂 Have a wonderful week ahead!
      Cheers,
      Tyler

      Thank you kindly, my friend! I’m glad you enjoyed my festive fall photos 🙂 Happy to read that you recently visited Oregon. We’ve certainly had some wet and windy weather lately. I ran a half marathon last weekend in the storm…if I can do that, I can do anything, including diving into the adventures of parenthood next year! Keep up the great work on your blog and have a wonderful week ahead 🙂
      Cheers,
      Tyler

      Thank you kindly, my friend! I’m glad you enjoyed my festive fall photos…Eugene and Corvallis are breathtakingly beautiful this time of year as the trees change color and shed their leaves. Life is going well. We had a scare last week when Heather lost most of her vision in her left eye. I drove her to a retina specialist in Salem and then we had to get some blood work in Corvallis. Still waiting to get the test results back. The doctors think there was a blood clot in her retina that hemorrhaged and the blood from the clot obstructed her vision. She is not in any pain and we are staying optimistic. The baby has a healthy heartbeat and likes to kick and stretch her legs and arms on a regular basis (all good signs!). We had our maternity photos yesterday on the OSU campus and the photos turned out great! I ran a half marathon last weekend and am busy writing grants, so less time for WordPress. I hope you and your family are doing well. Have a wonderful week ahead, Elizabeth!
      Cheers,
      Tyler

    Beautiful Autumn shots of your part of the world.
    I am loving this theme – local. Everyone’s take on the theme is different, unique, and personal. Thank you for sharing.
