Flashback Friday
I am glad I piqued your interest for my contribution to Wordless Wednesday.
As I said before, I love the strange, abstract and different types of photography.
The photo was one I took way back in 2019.
Our whole family was able to get together at our son's home in Oregon. We did many touristy kinds of adventures. One particular day we drove to Mount Angel, Oregon. Its a tiny community that has German Bavarian roots.
We visited the Mount Angel Abby and the Queen of Angels Monastery. There was a lovely chapel and museum there.
I have spent hours trying to find my photos from there but alas they are no where to be found. The only photo that remains is the one I took through the glass door window out into the hallway.
Of course it caught my eye because of the shattered window in an otherwise peaceful setting.
From that Abby visit we then went to the tulip fields and spent hours OOooo-ing and awe-ing over the magnificent colors.
Guess what? In looking for my tulip photos I found a shot of our family walking towards the Abby... yay.
Oh brother..I didn't want this photo but can't seem to remove it. This shot is of Multnomah Falls, Oregon. Sigh ... we did visit there another day of our visit.
Here's one of our Granddaughter and Dave and I enjoying those amazing Tulips.
Such wonderful memories.
How can it be 7 years ago already?

Very sorry to read that those other photos are unfindable. The crack, yes. Just stunning. Excellent eye.
Well, I do think the photos you have are wonderful. Love the tulips.
I live in Oregon and Mt Angel is a beautiful place. Such a striking photo! The texture and that dramatic crack draw you right in. It’s a shame the other images have gone missing over the years, but this one truly holds its own. A beautiful capture and a lovely flashback to revisit. 🌿
I've always wanted to visit a large tulip garden like this. The monastery is beautiful. I especially like the tall bell tower.
Aw, thanks for fleshing out that old photograph!
Being surrounded by all those tulips must feel euphoric!
Those were all great photos, and I'm glad you shared them! And also am glad you explained about the cracked window picture. That really was a very neat photo! I've heard of Multnomah Falls...isn't there a Bible college there?
Sounds like a wonderful trip. Those tulips are beautiful.
Great memories! Love the last shot of you both and your sweet girl!
Thanks for the explanation of the cracked window. I enjoyed all these photos and the memories that go with them.
The years pass quicker than we can imagine. The cracked glass was very interesting... I was just hoping it wasn't a crack on your door. Sue..the tulips are stunning and how wonderful that you have the photos that are full of special memories. I've always wanted to see that falls, so I'm glad you posted it here today. Hopefully someday I'll get to visit there. It can become exhausting when you are looking for particular photos and can't find them...knowing full well you have them somewhere. Happy Happy Saturday...hoping we get some much needed rain... loves!!
The field of tulips is beautiful. The waterfalls are pretty as well. I actually visited the falls recently and will share a post on Monday. The tiny community with German Bavarian roots sounds like a fun place to visit. And the Chapel sounds so peaceful.
I wish you wonderful March days.
The last photo is my favorite of todays, so happy in those gorgeous tulips. glad you found a few of your photos. I got my first digital camera in 2002, and I did a poor job of organizing them, I will think about them and try to figure out where they are. I have a drawer full of CD's but they take so long to open, I can't stand to try to look through them.
to remove the photos click on photo and hit delete button, or backspace works too. if it doesn't work try it until it does, sometimes it takes 3 trys
The photos that you have are lovely and I like the tulips!
