Seeking Solace

In my quest to seek solace in my time of grief, I took a stroll, I parked the car not far from home and walked familiar paths. I had been there so many times, I thought I had photographed the area enough for you and for myself. Yet as I walked I found many photo opportunities that hadn't occurred in the past, I am pleased and excited to bring you these photos. I hope you enjoy them.
Oh one more thing, there were areas that I did not go into as I usually do, there were many camps of the homeless, I did not want to breach their privacy, seemed much like someone taking photos through my living room window. I have no desire to make anyone uncomfortable.

 I went up a hill on the highway, came back on the other side taking a side-trip off the highway, to a little boat ramp park on the McKenzie River that I have shot many times. Here are the results.





























The only flower I saw!






















This is Jan's favorite, I saw the spider that calls this home, too tiny for my camera to capture.










I was a dreary grey day with rain sporadically pouring down, but the solace I sought was there despite the rain, the rain being such a good friend,  wouldn't have seemed right without it
