sunday morning musings...

lately, i've been so involved with portland that i've neglected my cape cod posts.

spring is just starting to arrive here, this sunday let's have coffee on the beach. just remember to bundle up it's still cold by the ocean.

 

if you've never walked a beach in the winter or early spring, put it on your to-do list...

and do it as often as you can....

 I'm linking this post to a Beach Cottage Good Life Wednesdays...want more good life...go visit there.

happy sunday friends

out & about ....portland

portland oregon....

i am on overload from my visit there...

so much to take in... 

one thing you cannot help but notice ...bikes

it's a city that embraces "the bike" both as a means of transportation, as much as a means of expression

sunday morning musings...

this sunday i'm in portland oregon and spring is already showing signs of life here.

i thought we could meet at the portland nursery for coffee

coming from the east coast where many areas are still covered in snow, this is such a welcome change.


take a little stroll with me.....

 

i found this corner of the nursery that had them most amazing scent.  SPRING!!

 stay awhile and enjoy your coffee...i'll be in touch with more of my portland visit.

happy spring thoughts sunday
