Corina Leaves Portland, OR

We had not seen a sunrise in several years.   Today, we drove Corina to the Airport at about 6:30 am and the sun was raising behind Mt. Hood.  What a beautiful sight....breathtaking.

Our drive back to the RV Park was awesome....

The sun rising over Mt. Hood and Manuel looks the other way and there is a Rainbow after a few showers.

That was truly beautiful.

We hooked up  the SUV and headed south towards Idanha which is about 50 miles from Salem.

Fields of fruit trees and other veggies...
