Hiking

We had an awesome day for hiking on Sunday. We chose a place that wasn't too far to drive. So many people think of Oregon as wet and green. Here is typical high desert where I live in Oregon. We get only about 10" precipitation a year.



The Deschutes river is a popular place for fly fishing.







I love this photo. Because no cars can go on this "road" we saw a lot of fishermen and fisherwomen riding bikes. It seems a little tricky with the waders on!
My new hiking boots have 6 miles on them now.  Trying to get them broke in before the big hike in August.



I'm not very good at photoshop, but it was fun changing these up a little.
