Good morning BlueSky! Hope that it is a good day and isn't too smokey where you are. #peace #nature #photography #eastcoastkin #photographersofBluesky #bloomscrolling #wildflowers #sunrise 568
When we got to Timberline there was so much smoke you could barely see Mt Hood but it was starting to clear. By the end of the day even Mt Jefferson was out. Enjoy your Monday #peace #nature #photography #eastcoastkin #hiking #MountainMonday #photographersofBluesky #photographersunited #fog 567
Finally made it to Mt Hood and the wildflowers were amazing. So many flowers! Enjoy your day. #peace #nature #photography #eastcoastkin #photographersofBluesky #bloomscrolling #wildflowers #nativeplants #hiking 566

The path into the forest. Happy #forestFriday #peace #nature #photography #eastcoastkin #backpacking #photographersofBluesky #photographersunited #hiking #557
Finding treasures like Trumpet Honeysuckle, (Lonicera ciliosa) is one of the reasons I hike. #peace #nature #photography #eastcoastkin #photographersofBluesky #photographersunited #bloomscrolling #wildflowers #nativeplants 563
As the summer moves on the plants in bloom move to higher elevations. Not that I need another reason to head to the mountains. Enjoy your day #peace #nature #photography #eastcoastkin #photographersofBluesky #photographersunited #bloomscrolling #wildflowers #nativeplants 561
This time of the year I sorta welcome foggy mountain days. A nice break from valley heat. Enjoy your Monday #peace #nature #photography #eastcoastkin #hiking #MountainMonday #photographersofBluesky #photographersunited #fog 560
Just a beautiful day at the beach. #OlympicNationalPark #peace #nature #photography #eastcoastkin #backpacking #photographersofBluesky #photographersunited #hiking #stunday #559

A room with a view! Happy #forestFriday #peace #nature #photography #eastcoastkin #backpacking #photographersofBluesky #photographersunited #hiking #557
The Camassia Natural Area is an urban gem. Located a few miles south of Portland OR. A nice visit anytime but especially in the spring when the wildflowers are blooming. #peace #nature #photography #eastcoastkin #photographersofBluesky #photographersunited #bloomscrolling #wildflowers 556
Monday is a great day to be in the mountains. Have a good one. #peace #nature #photography #eastcoastkin #hiking #MountainMonday #photographersofBluesky #photographersunited 553
Hope today is a good one for you. #peace #stunday #bloomscrolling #flowers #nativeplants #wildflowers 552
For whatever reason, this makes me think of fireworks. Have a great day #peace #nature #photography #eastcoastkin #photographersofBluesky #photographersunited #BlueSkyArtShow #Growing #bloomscrolling #wildflowers 551
Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument are such a beautiful, historic, cultural important area. Reducing there size is just wrong. #peace #nature #photography #eastcoastkin #exploreyoursurroundings #photographersofBluesky #photographersunited #hiking #exploring #549
Forecasters are calling for it to be warm today. Wish I could head to the beach. Enjoy your day #peace #nature #photography #eastcoastkin #tidesoutTuesday #photographersofBluesky #photographersunited #hiking #547
The mountains were hidden by the clouds but Mt Hood would occasionally show itself and seem to be floating. Have a good Monday #peace #nature #photography #eastcoastkin #hiking #MountainMonday #photographersofBluesky #photographersunited 546
A country sunrise. Hope you have a wonderful Sunday. #peace #nature #photography #eastcoastkin #stunday #photographersofBluesky #photographersunited #sunrise #545
Venturing into the foggy forest. It felt kind of nice to be hiking in the fog, in July. Happy #forestFriday #peace #nature #photography #eastcoastkin #fog #photographersofBluesky #photographersunited #hiking #543
Spent yesterday hiking in the fog. Flowers were great, views not so much. It was fun watching the clouds blow over the ridges and Mt Hood peaking out every now and again. Have a great day #peace #nature #photography #eastcoastkin #fog #photographersofBluesky #photographersunited #hiking #542
Discovered a wilderness area not far from my home. A bit embarrassed to say that I have driven by it dozens of times and never knew it was there. Happy #waterfallWednesday! #peace #nature #photography #eastcoastkin #exploreyoursurroundings #photographersofBluesky #photographersunited #541
Pass this place often, finally stopped to take a picture. It is surprising what's there if you take the time to look. Enjoy your day #peace #nature #photography #eastcoastkin #photographersofBluesky #photographersunited #540
