WHAT A FANTASTIC VIEW!!!
One thing I have to say about my buddy Bill (the cherry guy), is that he has an INCREDIBLE view from his home in Oregon. Check out this shot from his front yard. That's Mt. HOOD (;-)) in the distance. I almost think I'd put up with the COLD freezing winters up there just to enjoy this view. Seriously though, it's one of the nicer views in the area, but I think I'll stick to the warm beaches of Florida. ;-)

HOME AGAIN......WITH 30 POUNDS of CHERRIES
Well, I finally made it back home again. It's ALWAYS nice to come home! Spent the last two days with a good friend of mine, Bill Foley, up at his parents cherry orchards in Oregon. Always nice to hang out with friends and enjoy the beautiful northwest. I've attached a couple of "cherry" shots for you. The first shot is of the bins of cherries getting ready to go to the sorting facility. The second two are of Van and Ranier cherries in the tree. The fourth shot is of Bill with some of the cherries we picked. Bill and his family pick upwards of 1000 TONS of cherries a year! Incredible! Boy, these are some gooooood cherries folks!!! Thanks for everything Bill!

STILL ON THE ROAD
Well everyone, I'm still on the road and will be for the next few days. Then I'll download a few shots of my recent travels. Yesterday as we were flying over Texas, I took a couple of photos of the oil fields. For those that think drilling more wells is the answer and they don't care how bad it looks, you just might be surprised when you see these shots. We saw the same landscape for at least a hundred miles............nothing but oil fields, with literally THOUSANDS of oil derricks. Check out the photos................... It is NOT pretty. Dig in my backyard? I hope not. :-( Heading off in the morning to go pick cherries at my friends place in the Dalles, Oregon. Should be fun.
