Happy hot-and-humid-texas-sunda y-morning, Big Daddy. I was homesick today for the cool weather, and the beautiful sights of Oregon today when I flipped thru my photos and remembered I haven't visited this one of yours yet. God's Country - that's all I can say about Oregon!! If you go back there you have to drive on the Washington State side too, it is wonderful, and much more quiet and relaxed. I still have a hard time believing they got a freeway running right along the Oregon Side and there are so few places to stop. That's why you take the old scenic hwy, right? But that is only a few miles long...Well the freeway is there to stay but still it is fantastic!!! Have a great sunday, Ken and see ya! Marita.

Hello again, you have a very interesting album with images of Columbia River in NW USA. Columbia River is very powerful and beautiful with specatular scenery. You have beautifully captured and presented Columbia R. charm! I would like to invite you to view my pictures taken along Columbia R. in BC, in the West Kootenays. Please let me know how do you view Columbia upstream. Links to these albums: http://community.webshots.com/user/komierowski800 Regards, Rafal

Hi Ken: Thanks for the very kind words on my photos. These are so very nice. I had heard Oregon is beautiful. I think these photos are testimony to that. Very nice indeed. Thanks Darrell

Hi Ken! Stumbled onto your albums courtesy the great blooming fraternity of webshots. You have a good eye for natures beauty. It's been rightly said, "beauty lies in the eye of the beholder". We only have to look at nature's creations with such an eye to appreciate. I'll be visiting your site more often to savour the other beauties you have there!! God Bless & regards. Samad

Hello Ken, Thank you for your kind words about my album. My daughter put them on for me. Check hers out @ belladonnaphoto1. I love the area from this album and have visited it often, but my favorite place is N.C. and the SMOKIES,I stayed there ea. summer growing up with my grandma. I also as a young teen lived in San Antonio.My fondest memories of Tx.were the fields of blue bonnets,( the ticks were a mess tho.....ha) now each spring I have fields of poppies and lupine, which look like your blue bonnets. I agree Lynns albums are all so unique, she has an eye for photographing things differently, and her compositions are wonderful. As a senior now I thank God every day for all the wonderous beauty that is given us for free if only one takes the time to stop and look, from the tiniest mushroom to the wonderful sunrises and sunsets. Bless you too. Thank you for writing. Jan in Ca.

Hi Ken from Texas, This is also a very beautiful album, I found some more pictures to download here. I am very curious about how close to the Sandia's you lived? We live at Juan Tabo and Commanche and there are too many houses between me and the mountains to see them from my house, I know Alb. has grown so much since you lived here that I would love to know how close you were. My email address is Canary19763@cs.com or answering in a guestbook is fine too. God Bless you and yours too. Candy

Ken, I am checking email rather late tonight, but was so encouraged in reading your email to me that I wanted to come look at your pictures. Am I glad I did! :) The NorthWest is a wonderful place indeed, but I particularly enjoyed the personal shots you have online like the one of your grampa carving the turkey 50 yrs or so ago :) I can almost smell the Mrs Bairds bread seeing the wrapper behind the turkey -- we miss that and Blue Bell up here, but will take the view of Mt. Hood reflected on the Columbia River as a consilation prize ;) I look forward to seeing the rest of your wonderful photos tomorrow. Have a GREAT weekend and look us up when you come back this direction! In Him, Kenton Johnson, Gresham, Oregon

Dear Ken, Hi! God Bless! I am from Bellevue, Washington as Oakland is to Seattle. I've been to the Columbia Gorge many times, without my camera, unfortunately. I would have downloaded your first picture in this album, but I didn't like the man-made rail in the picture. As a photographer, I try to compose every photo as if I was painting. You've got a great eye for God's beauty and that's wonderful. I left more comments in your cloud guestbook. The Northwest is such a pretty place. Have you ever been to Banff, Alberta, or Alaska, or the Grand Tetons? The Maroon Bells in Colorado are also spectacular in the Fall. Glacier Park, Montana is another treat. The West entrance is the prettiest. If you have questions, please feel free to write. The higher the megapixels on a digital camera, the higher resolution will result in your photos. Of course, how serious of a photographer you want to beome depends on you. Thanks for sharing your pics and keep on snaping.

Hi Ken! I appreciate your comments on my featured album this week. It's a real pleasure to take a look on your breathtaking landscape in Oregon, it's just wonderful to thinking about all creations god give us and you show a part of this treasure. Good work my friend! Michel

Hi Ken, I have enjoyed myself visiting this album. I have not spent much time in the Northwest, but after looking at your beautiful album, I plan to spend some time there in the future! I love waterfalls, and I'm sure there's no lack of them up there!!! Thanks for your comments in my "California Beaches" album...I'm having lots of fun with my new camera & we're being blessed with some incredibly warm "winter weather" here in sunny Southern California! (I'm still praying for snow!)Bless you, Lynn
said lynncb7
Rivers and waterfalls are a favourite of mine, being born in a watersign. I can sit for ages just looking at it. Lovely photos and maybe I will go there some day. Atwa2
said atwa2
Ken, thank you for the invite to revisit this beautiful and scenic album now that you have combined them together. I have been through the Columbia Gorge two times over the years and hope to one of these days travel it again so that I may see all of the things that I missed. Thanks for sharing. God Bless from Colorado .. Donna

Ken: Looks like I am the last one here! These photos are great, and oh so familiar to me. It is cool seeing them come from someone so far away. Sure wish you could come out this way again. The Lord blessed you with amazing weather while you were out here, and amazing scenery too, isn't He great? Carmy

The image in my mind of America was buildings and sky scrapers. Since looking at your photo's they really show what it really looks like. I feel like I am on tour when I view them. Thank you for your comments on Beth's Poem. I have added it to the "My Family Album". She is a geogious little girl amd it gives me a lot of pleasure to hear her laugh. Your friend Tina (6/11/02)

Hi, really enjoyed the waterfalls in your Columbia River album! I very much enjoyed the one visit I made to the Columbia, but your shots have inspired me to go back. I hiked to Punch Bowl along the Eagle Creek from the Columbia. It was tough---"they& quot; rated it an easy hike. I guess the "they" were mountain climbers! Are these falls reasonably accessable? I would love to visit but don't care to climb sheer cliffs again. Although Punch Bowl is one of the most remarkable places I've ever seen. The "bowl" is hundreds of feet high. I have a few shots in the Eagle Creek album that have a few people in them, little dots along the walls! But I'll need to work with a physical fitness trainer for several months before I go back! I couldn't move for days after I made the hike and I was scared to death at some points! Warm regards, Julie

Ken, Another lovely album of beautiful unspoilt scenery and well captured,the shots of Multnomah Falls are very good,can almost hear the noise of the water,Best Wishes from your friend in the UK, Rod.

Ken, We must have been in Oregon around the same time. I think Bob and I flew out there in August of 2000. What a beautiful state and this album is simply gorgeous. You have great photos of the Columbia River Gorge. Everytime we see so much beauty on a vacation, I'm even more amazed with God's greatness. Thanks for your kind comments and thanks for sharing your great photos. Sharon

Looking at these amazing photos of the Pacific Northwest makes me yearn to take a trip out there to visit! I remember several years ago when you first told me of your plans to take a trip out to Oregon. God is still continuing to work through that trip-and allowed you to share the beauty of His creation and your special talent for capturing it on film with countless others. Thanks for being such a blessing. Love, Paulette
said paulette
Thanks for all your wonderful compliments regarding the content, colors, etc of my albums. We have not vacationed west of Idaho so far, but my wife keeps telling me we should visit Washington state one of these years. It's great to have all your photos in Webshots--for the world to see them. Jon

Hi Ken, You have added more photos and just made your album even better. This part of the Gorge is my favorite and you have done well with you talent to capture it to share with us. Thank you so much. I am going to Vancouver to visit two of my sons the second weekend in June. It is so ironic that our mutual friend Carmy lives in Vancouver also. Small world isn't it? My son Brent will go with me to meet his brothers and we will make my usual picture taking session a part of the trip. We are then going on to The Oregon Coast. I can't wait. I am so excited to go. It really doesn't take that long to get there from here. Thanks for sharing this neat album Ken. God Bless Jane
said janeloughney
Wow Ken, you have been busy with albums, awesome! The picture you call "Toll Bridge is at Hood River, Oregon, it goes to Bingen, Washington, and yes, it is a toll bridge so far as I know. Great pix! Lord bless, Carmy
said carmylita
Thanks for the comments in my guestbook on my pictures. I am enjoying digital photography but have much to learn. I have found your pictures and are excited about the ones in Oregon. We plan to go to Oregon, Washington, California, Montana and Idaho this summer and visit all the national parks. I have been researching to find pictures and yours are wonderful on Oregon...Thanks so much for sharing.

Steve just got up and informs that this does not look like the Biggs bridge (but might be) but tells me that indeed that one of the bridges is or used to be a Toll bridge...Sorry com/user/linao

The Columbia River Gorge is so beautiful and goes on for ever. I have started trips before in Canada and took her through Washington and down to the Oregon coast...A two and half day trip when you stop to see all the wonderful sights...I lived in Washington for years...Washington and Oregon are my two favorite States in the Union and I have been blessed to see them all...These two States have been blessed with everything from desert to Mountains, rain forests to some of the most beautiful coast lines I have seen...There are some awesome shots of the gorge here. I truly enjoyed visiting this album, it has rekindled my need for another trip through these two states and my need for what I call an ocean fix...it's like a drug to me, I need it at least yearly..."Horset ail Falls" is and always has been one of my favorite falls. If ever you get to Multnomah Falls again, just down the road is Bridal vail trail...you need to take this turn off...just a mile or so of some of the most beautiful falls around...Biggs (where the bridge is) Mary Hill to your right and stone hedge to your left just on the other side as your driving into Washington, this Bridge is not a toll bridge unless they changed it just in the last year...This is just down the road from John Day Dam, correct? If not it's a bridge I have not checked out in all these years...But she sure looks like the State line bridge? .Thanks for these wonderful shots of the river gorge...I truly enjoyed viewing them...When you took your trip through the river gorge was it windy? com/user/linao

Hi, Thanks so much for your comments on my Columbia River Gorge Album. I love your album and really enjoyed it. Your pictures are just great. I have so much fun looking at albums of places I have been. It is a great place to go and God's beauty is wonderful. My son lives in Portland and I live in Eastern Wash. I make this trip a couple of times a year and every time I marvel at the beauty. My photos turn out different every time depending on the light. Thanks for sharing. Jane
said janeloughney
Ken: I am back, I suppose I could add a few more tid bits about the Gorge, I am by no means a historian, I just live out here and hear about or read about things in the paper. They are restoring the Vista House at the top of Crown Point, it will be a marvel when it is finnished, I can't wait to see it. I am a Lewis and Clark fan, and out here during the summer months they have a wonderful cruise boat that cruises the Columbia River, either up the River or down, which ever direction you chose to go, it is called the Lewis and Clark Columbia River Cruises. We went this last summer and it was a wonderful experience, it took about 5 hours one direction from Portland, Oregon to Astoria, Oregon. In one word??? Fabulous! If you get out here again you must try that cruise, it was well worth the money spent! I am going to look at you other albums! Carmy
said carmylita
Ken: I can't believe someone has not come along and signed this guest book yet. Your work is great, these are sights I see on a regular basis, yes, the Lord gave us beauty out here in the Pacific North West. Some years back a HUGE boulder broke off the face of Multmomah Falls, at the time a couple were just getting ready to be married, peices of rock shattered every where, but no one was hurt, quite amazingly as there are usually kids splashing in the water below the falls. They aren't allowed to now. The boulder they say was as big as a car! It changed how the falls fall! Just a little tid bit for your guest book! Lewis & Clark called this area a lush rain forest. I wonder if we see this beauty here on earth how much more beauty shall we behold on the other side???? Lord Bless you, Carmy (Thanks for all the compliments on my work)
