The Desert

The storms that dumped inch after inch of snow in other parts of the country came through the Phoenix area and brought some rain showers with it. Some days it would just be dreary all day and then some days there would be a break in the clouds just in time for some late afternoon sun to shine through. In this case the retreating rainstorm and the sun mixed to provide a picturesque shot of our desert with color found on the ground and in the air.

Latourell Falls

Latourell Falls is one of the few falls in the Colombia River Gorge where you could potentially walk right up to the water falling 249 feet from the top. Preferring to stay as dry and arm as the blustery day would allow, we climbed down to the water but stayed well back from the water’s impact point.

The Garden

The Japanese Garden of Portland is a 5.5-acre space sitting on top of a hill overlooking the city of Portland. Walking paths take visitors past numerous exhibits of flowers and plants, a pond, and this small waterfall.

Haystack Rock

Rising 235 feet above the water, Haystack Rock sits along the Oregon shoreline in the beautiful town of Canon Beach. This formation is a basalt sea stack formed through volcanic activity far below the earth’s surface. You’ve most likely seen Haystack Rock before in travel magazines, and online vlogs and it is a recognizable feature in the classic 80’s movie The Goonies.

After a day of trekking around the city of Portland, we were excited to spend time in this picturesque seaside town with its little shops and amazing ocean views. The day was bright and sunny albeit a little chilly and windy down at the beach. The bright sun mixed with the sea spray gives a mist-like appearance to the photo.

Across the River

The Columbia River Gorge is a canyon that stretches on for 80 miles as it channels its way through the Cascade Range. The gorge and river form a natural border between Oregon and Washington. This photo was taken on the Oregon side of the river, just down the roadway from Multnomah Falls. The overcast and gray skies still allowed us some amazingly beautiful fall views including this one of clouds crossing the face of a ridgeline two miles away.

Multnomah Falls

Nestled amongst the hills of the Colombia River Gorge, Multnomah Falls towers above other falls in the area and stands as the tallest waterfall in Oregon. Water leaving the top descends a total of 620 feet with one stop at 542 feet into a small pool and then another smaller drop of 69 feet to the lower pool. Kudos to @Fran_gon13 for braving the driving rain to assist in my mostly failed attempt to keep the camera dry.

ATC Zero

21 years ago at 9:03 am a Deputy Manager at the FAA’s regional air traffic control center on Long Island issues a command to clear the skies over New York City and its’ surrounding region. Not a single flight will be allowed in or out of New York. At 9:25 am an FAA National Operations manager on his first day at the job issues a nationwide ground stop, halting all aircraft on the ground from taking off. At 9:38 am that same manager makes the decision to land or divert every single aircraft either over the United States or headed this way.

Water Tower Plaza

When I first moved to AZ in 2012, I spent a week living in Gilbert Arizona with the gracious parents of my friend and soon-to-be roommate/study buddy/RN school classmate Nate. At the time the downtown area had some nice places to eat and a few shops to meander through. Since then the area has blossomed and now sports a wide variety of eating establishments and entertainment venues.

The centerpiece of this area is Water Tower Plaza. The water tower was erected in 1927 and was initially used to store water for firefighting and then transitioned to hold drinking water until 1985. A nearby pump house provided the pressure needed to push water to the tower’s height of over 230 feet. Gravity then provided the pressure needed to disperse the water to the town’s residents. While the water tower ceased operations after 1985 the decision was made in 2008 to renovate the water tower and build the plaza that it now sits on. The property now hosts numerous events throughout the year and the tower has been fitted with lighting that draws the eye after the sun goes down.
