Monday 21 August, eclipse day.
A trip to see the effects of the wizard. Yes, you know which wizard.
A double good day:. eclipse and a visit to a wonderful park-rose garden.
Window says medical and retail marijuana
That this is a marijuana friendly area cannot be overlooked or the odors avoided.
A few shots of the people and shadows at the eclipse viewing. A fine viewing; a whetting of our appetite for seeing a total one. Perhaps July 2019 in South American, preferably by ship. Research has started. Some may wish to join us.
The early part looked like the Apple logo; QB thought it looked more like a cookie snacked upon.
Of course the end of times folks marched by. Not pictured.
Washington Park and it’s rose garden on the Portland highlite list. Did not make it to the Japanese garden.
List, a very long list of the garden roses.
Above is a view from the top of the rose garden, looking down into the valley well below. It was a long very very hot walk up.
The rose garden is several, many times larger than the one in Regents park.

No selfies with the silly glasses on? Bad…
Would have been worth the trip to see that 🙂
And piling on to get that selfie (and test)
So did it even get dark or what?
Like a very overcast dag
Fake news. Portland’s International Rose Test Garden has 7,000 roses. Queen Mary’s Garden in Regents Park has 12,000 roses and 9,000 begonias. Fake news!
More research required.
Nice to see perspective from your POV. The rose garden sounds like a two-day visit, or more.
My research is conclusive. I download FSB satellite images of both locations and hand counted the roses. Fake news.
Surprised as both QB and I certainly thought there were more here. Spectacular layout. Must have been second bloom but sure seemed like a first one. Feeding them good drugs?
