Lovely Tendrils and More at Tugman State Park (+5 insets!)


(+5 insets!)
A Change of Scenery is Something We'll Never Take For Granted Again!
Who knew that the whole world would be subject to quarantines and being locked up in our houses for weeks and months on end? I know that some of you have had it much worse in this regard and I feel terrible for those who have only rarely set foot outside their homes since Covid reared its ugly and ever-mutating head.
It is the greatest fortune that we are able to travel without much fear, bringing our home on wheels with us as we explore the lovely state parks of Oregon. We don't feel comfortable leaving the state in case we needed to get home quickly but we are not left wanting! There is an endless wealth of stunning beauty in every direction, from craggy coasts to snowy peaks, deep forest to desert (alpine and arid), temperate rainforest to rolling meadows, and so much more. Oregon is touted for its amazing landscapes and jaw-dropping scenery and it is such a joy to explore this state!
I'm down to the last two presentations from our trip to William Tugman State Park, though to be honest, I had to force myself to stop processing pictures--there are just so many more I could share! What a marvelous place for photography!
Today's Pictures
On the long hike around the east side of Eel Lake and through the forest, Steve pointed out a wild cucumber plant with it's wonderful vines and tendrils. What luck to find the sun shining on a particularly awesome display of the ever-reaching grasp of tendrils shown alongside corkscrew curls.
I'm also sharing pictures of a russet-colored slug that I found near the lake's edge and got a nice portrait too! There's a picture of a hoverfly on a California Figwort, a white Hawkweed blossom showing one in seed behind, and another trail picture too. Enjoy!
I hope that everyone is able to travel freely as the months trudge by and vaccinations become more widespread. I don't know if life will ever return to the way it used to be but we can hope and maybe all of us can find a way to get out there and enjoy our amazing planet. Stay safe!!

Bonne semaine.

We are not allowed to travel to anywhere outside 5 miles from our home at the moment, that's what our lockdown is like, so your trips would be out of bounds. So enjoy yourselves while you can and stay safe please.
HUGSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
happy new week.....and happy March:)
Stay safe and well!
The PiPs: All excellent, but I especially like the slug in the first PiP and the hoverfly in the third one.
Jackie and I have now had our first vaccination (the Oxford Astrazeneca) and are looking forward to our second one in the middle of May. Still can't go anywhere outside our local area though!
Have a lovely day.
