Iron Fist

flip sides

Yes, I realize it’s been a while since I’ve written anything substantial, and I feel bad about that, so in the meantime I’m going to buy you off with opposing views of Mt Hood.

    Mt. Hood is pointy. I did not know that.

    Wow - gorgeous shots! It’s only been clear enough for me to see Mt. Hood once when I’ve been in Portland. :(

    I always smile when I see your pictures though….

    Something I should add here is a little note on geography for those who aren’t familiar with the area: Mt Hood is, oh, forty or so miles to the east of Portland, and Madras is some forty-odd miles to the east of Mt Hood. So the bottom photo is looking east and is what Portlanders see on a good day. The top photo is looking west, from the other side of the Cascade range.

    On a clear day, we can see the top of Mt. Hood from the summit of Mission Ridge. We had such a day last Saturday, and it was stunning, even from such distance. You’ve captured it beautifully here!

    Who goes to Madras?

    Oh ya, nice photos. :)

    I wish my job took me to exotic places, like Thailand. Instead it takes me to pokey little Oregon towns.

    Fantastic photos!

    Clicked over from Hilly’s site. I figure we share a lot of the same reads (Dustin, Hilly, Dave, Jenny, etc.) so why not read you as well.

    And, to think, the first post I read on your site is you buying your way out of silence. Heh. ;-)

    Hey Kapgar, welcome! Thanks for the compliment, and I’ll get around to writing something soon. Honest.

    Dude, seriously. You’re getting to be as unreliable as I am. Save yourself from my fate. POST SOMETHING! ;)
