More of the neighborhood...

A beautiful day for a long run - 30F to start, upper 40Fs when done. Mixed-up winds, but not too strong. Here are some pics from this morning...

First one is looking over the Chehalem Valley:

Next is a barn near the top of the ridge, then some pics of looking towards the coast range:

Several of the neighborhood horses were out in their pastures...

When we first moved to the neighborhood, we rented these two houses. First, the old farmhouse on the left, then the one on the right that was moved in when Murray Road in Beaverton was widened. And we liked the neighborhood so much, we bought our house, 1.5 miles away, driveway to driveway! There used to be a hazelnut orchard here, before the vineyard.

I got 'dusted' several times out on the gravel road!

I passed several hazelnut orchards burning prunings. And the wind was sometimes blowing smoke in my face, sometimes not, and not a consistent direction, either!

Looking into one of the hazelnut orchards...

New kids at the goat farm!

View of Bald Peak:

Spring flowers are starting, and the rams were having an alfalfa brunch!

The lambs were playing King of the Hill!

Continuing on...

Good run! Let it rain now...
