Spending the holidays with someone special was just the ticket. My thanksgiving weekend was filled with good food, cold drink, tasty cigars, family stories, and good pictures, but most of all my lovely lady, Karen.
The views were spectacular.
The house was warm.
As we stocked up with firewood.
Snow was on the ground…on Mt. Hood, that is.
Stonehenge was here.
With the moon overlooking us.
Patch was waiting patiently.
The rainbow trout were getting big.
The Buffalo were grazing.
The eagles were overhead.
The horses were curious.
Really curious.
No, really…the horses were curious.
As the cars arrived.
I mucked stalls.
Makeup was applied.
And the kitchen came alive.
How was your Thanksgiving holiday? Let us know!

What a great spot to spend any time, not just the holidays.
BTW, I couldn’t help but notice that Patch has strategically situated his food dish right under the kitchen counter in case any food happens to drop…very clever fellow.

Hey now…that first photo. I’d recognize that view ANYWHERE. The Columbia Gorge (and the bridge at Biggs) is one of my most favorite places in the world. We love to camp in the little campground at the base of this hill…pretty much right below where you must’ve been standing when you took this picture.
Glorious. Sounds like yo had a great holiday.
Love your curious horses.

What lovely views for Thanksgiving. Watch taking pictures of the lady with wet hair and putting on makeup. That can get you in a bit of trouble even though she looks gorgeous that way. The house looks like the perfect setting for Thanksgiving.
