• Right before the sun came out and got to work melting everything. And not a moment too soon for that heavy, snowy branch hanging over my car • #WeekenderInPortland #portland #pdx #portlandpdx #thisispdx #portlandnw #washingtonpark #oregon #oregonexplored #exploreoregon #oregonnw #cascadiaexplored #pnw #pnwonderland #pnwdiscovered #thatpnwlife #northwestisbest
• I love the quiet that comes with snowy mornings like this one. I walk a block up to Washington Park and it feels like I’m the only one in the whole city • #WeekenderInPortland #portland #pdx #portlandpdx #thisispdx #portlandnw #washingtonpark #oregon #oregonnw #oregonexplored #exploreoregon #pnw #pnwonderland #pnwdiscovered #thatpnwlife #northwestisbest #cascadiaexplored
