The Road In

The Road To Broadbent

I would never have thought I could get so much Blogger mileage from lunch with my sisters in Myrtle Point. This was taken on a road leading from Myrtle Point to the small community of Broadbent.

The old building is covered in wild blackberry vines. Soon all the white flowers will turn into delicious berries.

Haying done

Wild Flowers

My Internet was down last night so I'm late. This is yet another scene from my last weekend trip to Myrtle Point.

Tree and Stump

I love the yellow flowers in this field.

Out To Pasture

This old truck seems to have outlived its usefulness and, much like an old horse, has been turned out to pasture. Many thanks to the farmer who left this reminder of days gone by. My husband says he thinks its a 40's Ford truck but isn't sure. Anyone know for sure?

This is near the tiny community of Tenmile, Oregon. I've been through this area many times and have never noticed this truck before because it sits at the back of a large pasture. Yesterday I stopped to take some pictures of hay bails across the road and discovered the truck when I started to get back in my car.



This gives an idea of how far back in the pasture it is and why I missed it before.

Annie, yes we did!

We did get covered with snow today. It was so beautiful. So I grabbed my camera, skipped a couple hours of work and headed to high ground. The good thing is that I had the roads all to myself. The bad thing is that the reason I DID have the roads all to myself was because they looked like this.


I got so many shots I really like but I won't lay them all on you at once.


In a few places I ran into blizzard conditions




I hope the snow isn't all gone in the morning.
