I had to burn vacation days before June 30, as I had built up too many over the pandemic (since travel was restricted), so I visited my son up in Oregon. I was walking around downtown, and walked into The Shutterbug, an esteemed camera shop that’s been around for quite a while. I ended up walking out with a new Canon R5 (I’ve been saving up for a while), so I took it for a spin at the famous Portland rose garden.

      Thank you. I’ve been there before, but never really timed it right, and so missed the prime blooming season. But going in June turned out to be excellent timing. It is an incredible garden when everything is blooming as it was when I was there. Just lucky.

      Please do post your photos from France! I have some from Monet’s garden in Giverny when my wife and I visited a few years ago that turned out well. I’d love to see yours.
