Even the Works of Man are overgrown, given time.<BR/><BR/>Pluto: Yipe!<BR/><BR/>Lisa: I try and tell that to native Portlanders and they don't believe me. And my bride, love her as I do, has a feaking Brita filter carafe in the fridge. Go figure...<BR/><BR/>Brent: The funny thing is, where we're working (near the Reservoir #2 headworks) is a bustling little place. We must have had a dozen City trucks and vans through the drill site today. I didn't realize that the PWB guys had reopened the road.<BR/><BR/>So I closed it. Henh. And after that it was just us and the river and the forest and the sky.<BR/><BR/>Sweet.FDChiefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10607785969510234092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31246093.post-41566065642731987612009-01-14T20:12:00.000-07:002009-01-14T20:12:00.000-07:00That's a pretty exclusive club you're in now, Chie...That's a pretty exclusive club you're in now, Chief - those who set foot in the Bull Run. The city is REALLY proud that its water originates where no man dare tread, not even the discreet hiker.<BR/><BR/>Glad to see that it's really as pretty and pristine up there as they say.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09960922037754400565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31246093.post-7117165831302221112009-01-14T18:08:00.000-07:002009-01-14T18:08:00.000-07:00Thank you for sharing these lovely photos.
