A River Runs through It

Portland, Oregon is divided east and west by the Willamette River;

so you will see many bridges here.

Walking along the river on Sunday I took time to

notice spring's arrival with pink cherry blossoms

and high waters.

In this picture I can see three bridges over the river.

When I first moved to Portland I had the most difficult time

figuring out how to get across the river, so mostly

I stayed on my eastside.  Since that time I have

learned how to get around, after all it has been 35 years.

I love my city and love showing visitors around;

so if you come to town, just let me know.

I can cross the river now.
