Oregon Gifts of Comfort and Joy: The Online Diary of a Central Oregon Grandmother

Welcome to the online diary of a Central Oregon Grandmother (me) who is busy celebrating the positive portions of her everyday life ... along with her best friend husband (Cary). It is quite an eclectic diary and I try to do my best to incorporate a little bit of history into many of my posts. Your visit to our piece of American Pie is greatly appreciated. This chatty Kathy posts frequently, so coming back to visit often is highly encouraged.

Watery Wednesday: Paulina Lake, Newberry Crater, Oregon

All of these pictures were taken at Paulina Lake, at one time or another. This photo of the Bald Eagle getting his fish was taken last August. There were actually two of them arguing over who was going to get that particular dinner, but by the time I got my camera organized and zoomed in, I was very lucky to get the picture of this one. As with any of the photos on this blog, you can click on it to enlarge for better viewing.

These were all taken at the marina at Paulina Lake Lodge:

There was a touch of an algea bloom at the time I took these:

FIDDLE-DE-DEW

Hey, diddle, diddle,
The dew on my fiddle
Is making it hard to play!

Hey, diddle, diddle,
I need a new fiddle
With all the dew washed away!
