Hi Jack. Summer is definitely the best time to see Portland and the NW -- especially if you're escaping the heat and humidity of the rest of the country.

Hi Jodi. Good luck on your move. Most people here love Portland, but the rainy winter gets to some newcomers. Your desire for help in finding a place to live gives me the opportunity to plug my favorite realtor. http://www.windermere.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=agentOffice.AgentDetail&agentMetauser_ID=16888

Moving
Hello, Just like to thank you for the pictures. We are thinking about relocating to portland from wisconsin and I am happy to see these wonderful things to do. I am very interested in finding a great place to live there if you can help me.

Thanks for the plug on your blog, Kris. My blog is on vacation for the summer. My blog is not a personal journal -- just things of interest to me. I periodically delete items that are out of date or otherwise no longer topical.

Thanks Eleanor for all your nice comments on my various articles. I'm glad you like my photos.

Oh, how I enjoyed seeing these! I can only say "ditto" to all the complimentary remarks below! Thanks so much for sharing them!!
— Eleanor Robb, June 3, 2007

Thanks, Frader. Check back periodically as I add photos to this site off and on.

nice pics of a great city
I'm always looking for good Portland photos, it's such a beautiful town. Nice job...catches the essence and feel of the place.

Chinese Elephants
The statue of the elephants is very nice. We didn't see anything like this in Xi'an. The stone elephants along the Avenue of the Animals at the Ming Tombs are quite realistic. They do not have the writing nor the exaggeration of the ears and trunks.

Nicely done....I went to school a year at Oregon College of Education at Monmouth many moons ago so I've been to Portland several times. Very nice city.

David, thanks for sharing about Portland. The mountain photos is marvellous!

Wow!
I love the aerial view of Mount St. Helens. Nice shot!
— Radu Gruian, April 29, 2002

Just AWESOME picture of Mount St. Helens. In (August)1987 we drove from Randle to Cougar, as well as a short hike to Spirit Lake. The destroyed forest after the eruption of May 18, 1980, is just now beginning to show the first signs of coming back to life...

A digital delight! Like 'em all -- esp. #5

Another great Sessions talent. Great photos; hope to visit one of these days
— Bill Caro, November 20, 2001

Beautiful Pictures..I would really like to visit that private garden.
— Jill Riebow, November 19, 2001

I like them all because of their compositions. They are really well done.
— Jean Sessions, November 19, 2001

I think anyone who loves to garden would like No. 2, and the peace and serenity that goes with it.
— Dan Sewell, November 19, 2001

Wow! Breathtaking! Being an avid gardener, the second photo was my favorite, followed by Mount St. Helen, then the first, then the rest!
— Jean Wilund, November 19, 2001

Good Pics of Portland
I like the first one the best.
