This one is posted out of order. We had pretty decent flights down south and back. Small jets both ways, commuter types, but OK none the less.

Ok… So the theme for the Photo Hunt this week is triangle. I’m struggling with it. The first one I considered was a shot I took recently while out to dinner with friends at a pizza place. Triangles of pizza slices all over the place in that shot. But I wasn’t totally satisfied with it, even though it made me laugh. I’m ending up with this… though it’s not a true triangle in the sense that it’s really more like a cone, but hey… from the side it looks triangle-ish. So… here you have Mt. Hood, at sunset, taken near PDX, with a plane landing. Technically you could say the plane also has a couple of triangles, with blunted edges, if you could the wings and tail wings. I know… I’m stretching it.
Happy hunting everyone and if you’d like to join in all the photo hunt fun, CLICK HERE for details. Then grab that camera of yours and get out there and shoot.

I decided I needed to get back to updating everyone on the activities of the last couple of weeks in our lives. I was side-tracked there for a day or two by the election. The previous post to this says everything I need to say about that, other than this… I am, and I’m very happy to say this, really proud to be an American right now. My faith has been renewed.
Alright then… onward… or, in this case and the case of the next few posts, backward….
We traveled down to San Jose to do a very quick visit with Karen’s family. Her brother and sister in law were visiting from Florida so it seemed like a good time for us to go down and see everyone at once. We had a great time. We wished, coming back, that we’d stayed a couple days longer. Ah well… next time.
This shot was taken during the plane ride down. I think I took it with my iPhone. Not bad for an iPhone photo actually. I love the sun on the engine.

After enjoying some shopping at Saturday Market we ventured out along Marine Drive, which happens to pass the airport. I couldn’t resist stopping to take a few pictures of both planes, and as you’ll see by the next post… Mt. Hood and the river.
