The scenery in Oregon

On the way to Oregon we passed through California and it was pretty, When we hit the Shasta Mountain it was dark and it was raining and then all of a sudden the rain turned to SNOW!!!!!
I have a picture down here of it. Well we were on pins and needles!!!! Well we passed through and 
then we were in Oregon and the beauty that we saw!!! Tall pine trees and green pastures everywhere!!
There were tons and tons of cattle and sheep and horses everywhere. Rolling hills and the we passed tall pine trees with snow on them it was absolutely stunning!!!!Gods handy work is amazing!!! He did and he did it good!!!!!!
            -This was what it looked like coming through the Shasta Mountains. It reminded me of the ride at Disney Land. Space Mountain.

 - It was foggy and the clouds were circling the tops of the mountain tops, and the roads were winding around the mountains and curving this way and that.
 -Heres a better picture of the fog and you can sorta see the snow laying between the trees.

 - Heres the snow on the trees so pretty!!!!
 - A farm with cattle. They had acres and acres and these cattle or sheep would be stretched out across it.
 - This field we passed and it was amazing how the yellow grass was soo bright.
 -Ever see a pair tree. These are the blossoms before they bloom. It was in her backyard!!
 A close up of my Aunts Holly berry tree.To my agonizing surprise the leaves were pointy and sharp!!
      All kinds of flowers because it is soo moist and fertile.

 Some of the houses they had downtown we historical and you could go in and explore but we had very little time and didnt get to.
 trees and trees galore!!!
 Streams and ponds and rivers in the most beautiful places and water falls.
 As we were passing through this little town we had to stop at this awesome old fashion stop light. I have never seen anything like this before.


 The earth was so fertile they had large earth worms making holes int he ground as they came up to the surface.
 These were the branches of a tree in my Aunts backyard.
 The Holly Tree





The moss grows everywhere!!! It even grew on the cars
 Up and down the sidewalks flowers of yellow and purple and red grew like crazy!!!





 This was across the street from a Mcdonalds. Wow huh!!!

 Beautiful land of Oregon!!!!!!
