The Pancake Chronicles
My name is Colleen.
I love taking my time and finding beauty and humour in things before they happen - as in seeds and salamanders.
"The sweetest thing in all my life has been the longing — to reach the Mountain, to find the place where all the beauty came from — my country, the place where I ought to have been born. Do you think it all meant nothing, all the longing? The longing for home? For indeed it now feels not like going, but like going back."
C.S. Lewis - Till We Have Faces: A Myth Retold
"Look, it's not in my nature to be mysterious. But I can't talk about it and I can't talk about why."

I definitely feel the spray. Beautiful :)
I've definitely felt the spray. Definitely beautiful. :-)
Thanks for a memory revived.
Oh My Word!
Wow! Absolutely stunning!
Spectacular spraying!
Hoi!
I hope you're feeling better now. The fantastic Canadian views are tempting me to consider it as the next country to visit (for a year or two) ;)
Cheers,
Ace.
I'm still feeling a little *blech* but I'm getting there. "There" hopefully being somewhere less snotty and cough-y. The photos from Feb 22 and on were all taken in Oregon, USA. It's a gorgeous place. Here, in my remote little town in the north, it is still white and deep with snow so it was a very nice reprieve to go to warmer places for awhile. But please still come to Canada! :) It isn't all under snow all of the time despite the rumours circulating. :)
I do believe snow all the time is way better than dark skies and black wet streets.
There is a reason why depression and suicide rates are far lower in Scandinavian countries.
The reason is snow. It brightens. It cheers. Plus, you can drink glueh wine all day.
Mmmmmm, glueh wine. Sounds sticky!
Is this Multnomah Falls near Portland?! If so, it is yet another location in Oregon that we have BOTH been to within the past year. We really need to try and coordinate a little better. :)
Yes, it's Multnomah! We DO need to coordinate. SERIOUSLY coordinate. (None of this silly coordinating that we've been up to.)
I don't think I wanna live in the city anymore...
any questions?
