"I started photographing my domestic world and writing not just about what I had made,
but why I made it, examining the thoughts that accompany creativity and the act of making."
Jane Brocket from The Gentle Art of Domesticity p. 189 UK edition

Presidents' Day?



Looking north across the Columbia River to the mountains in Washington state

Looking south toward Portland along the Columbia River

Looking north toward Multnomah Falls from Vista House on the East bank of the Columbia River

Listen to the roar of the falls in the following video clip!





Confession:  Although the USA celebrated Presidents' Day on February 17th, I gave very little homage to my nation's presidents because I was so focused on celebrating my birthday.  From beginning to end, I had a wonderful day!

I enjoyed my youngest granddaughter Rose, a bouquet of gorgeous red carnations, and my youngest daughter drove me to Multnomah Falls, and took some photos to show you I really was there :)  Then when we got home we had a yummy dinner of stuffed mushrooms, broccoli beef, and stir-fried rice with a yellow cake decked in lemon curd, and nine candles placed by my oldest granddaughter.

How did you celebrate your last national holiday?
