Terrific shadow shots from one of my favorite states, Oregon! I lived there for 15 years and have been to most of the places in your photos! What lovely memories! And welcome to the fun of Shadow Shot!! Look forward to seeing more Oregon shadows! Enjoy your weekend!

Hi Sylvia,
Thank you so much! I am glad that these brought back fond memories for you. It is beautiful here, that is for sure. I am very happy to have found SSS.
Take care,
Kathy
Gorgeous shadow shots! I am now a follower of your blog!
My shadow shot, hope you can come by.
Wow, you got some beauties. I love the very first McKenzie River shot. That one has a poem in it. :)
You've shared some wonderful shots of Oregon!
oh, this has been a lovely trip around Oregon. I haven't been there in several years but my sis has lived there for 35+ years. your shadows are beautiful. and thanks for the Jimmy Buffet tune!!! happy SSS.
You live in such a beautiful part of the world! The scenery that surrounds you is breathtaking! I bet the air smells so clean and fresh too! Such a lovely collection of photos. I wish I could jump on a plane and visit your lovely Oregon! Maybe one day... :)
I hope you have a lovely week!
Great pictures, and Oregon provides so many beautiful and interesting places to take pictures. I especially like the one at McCredie Hot Springs.
Breathtaking scenery...the hot springs I would like to visit right now!! And your shadow shots are wonderful...love the deck view your 'sweetie' has.

Hope your weekend has been treating you well.
Beautiful photos. My sister lives in Kerrville TX and I have yet to go on the Riverwalk in San Antonio. Next time!
Hi Rose - Thank you so much for becoming a follower! I'm glad you enjoyed this week's SS.
Hi Lisa - You know that I would sure love to see your poem. That is one of my favorites too. It is from Delta Campground. I'll post more of that place soon.
Hi Sally - Thank you for stopping by! I'm happy that you like them.
Miss Becky - Well, it sounds like it is time for you to come and visit your sister! It is easy to take pictures when you are in Oregon. Glad to know that you are a Parrothead too! Thanks for stopping by and leaving me a comment.
Hi Tracy - You are welcome to come and stay with us at any time. It is so pretty here.
Kathy B. - Thank you! I have a post on those hot springs; maybe I'll do another one with the newer photos that we have taken. That hot springs is right off the main highway, and we stop there to stretch our legs when we go to the valley.
Hi Anni, thanks! I'll tell Cary that you liked that photo ... he was drinking a cup of early morning coffee at a cute little cabin we rented.
Hi Joan - I really appreciate your comments. Oh, The Riverwalk is a must! We went to the Army National Football Combine event, and it was really cold that week; plus they had drained the river for clean up, but still it was beautiful.
Thank you, everybody ... you are all entered in Monday's drawing.

I love these. I have been in/through Oregon many times and have always enjoyed the visit (except for driving freeways through major metropolitan areas!) So much beauty to be found, thank you for sharing some of it!
Hi Dimple! Thank you so much for stopping by and for the nice things you wrote. Yeah, Portland is the worse traffic that we have. I'll keep sharing, especially on Shadow Shot Sunday. I'm entering you into my drawing.
Kathy
Great photos, esp. of your honey at the end.
Loving your Billy Joel music.
God Bless!

Beautiful Oregon photos, as usual, Kathy! Hope you have been well and enjoying your Winter. I, however, am looking forward to Spring!! :)
Best,
Gloria
Hi Julie, thanks for becoming my newest follower! Glad you liked seeing some of Oregon, my Cary and the music.
Hi Gloria, thank you so much! I'm looking forward to spring too (well, around here we don't get spring ... it is summer that we for.)
great shadow and reflection shots!
Cheers!
Thank you, Kathe W!
These pics make me want to live in Oregon! Fabulous shots and beautiful shadows.
Hi SJ! It is pretty here, that is for sure.
IF SHADOWS COULD TALK
If shadows could talk,
Just what would they say?
If you listen close,
You’ll hear them, you may.
Shadows do chatter
And gossip and talk
In the store windows,
Along the sidewalk,
Over the mountains,
On prairie and plain,
Begging for sunshine
And not days of rain;
Emboldened by light,
The stark shadows say:
“We’re out for a lark,
Please join us at play!”
