Rhododendron /Zig Zag, Oregon

Ruth and I spent a week in a cabin near Mount Hood, Orgeon with lifelong friends (Geeks Anonymous).  The nearest towns were Rhododendron and Zig Zag. The huge trees and the dense flora are a miracle to behold.

Old friends. The camaraderie of time, lives shared.  A blessing.
