So glad to hear that Alice. Thanks. (And..,you might recognize? the photo was taken in the Portland Japanese Garden) 😊 Reply
Yes. I was married in a high section of the Japanese Gardens that was later closed. Portland has so many wonderful gardens and green spaces for refuge. Thanks. 🙂
Oh wow! That’s really nice! Yes, Portland has a lot of nice places. My favorite is the International Rose Garden. Love all the roses!
