Crystal Springs Rhododendron Garden on Lag b'Omer

[sonia]

On the evening of Lag b'Omer, I went folk dancing, as I do most Wednesday nights when I can get a ride. Thursday I had a space in my schedule, so I biked down to Crystal Springs Rhododendron Garden, a spring-fed oasis cradled in the middle of Portland. All more or less coincidentally a lovely way to celebrate Lag b'Omer.


First thing, I saw a tiny peeping duckling and its concerned parent


Looked over the railing at part of the garden below


Rhododendrons everywhere!


Great big globes of flowers


Wood ducks, hanging out in the path


Sat and looked out over the water awhile, marveling at being in the middle of a city


Looking up toward the bridge and exit, shrouded in a weeping willow tree


Bonus iris in my garden



Happy Spring to all!
