One thing I always learn from my mom and her friends when I go home is how the most beautiful things can be found in the simplicity of life.
We took a roadtrip down to Portland, OR and first went to visit the rose gardens. It was unreal! The smell permeates through the air and it is pure bliss! There are hundreds of varieties in all colors and the whole place is just to die for!!
One of our favorites was the Queen Mary rose on this tree!
It's hard to tell from the picture but there is an old railroad trestle that goes through these trees. It was the coolest!
Also, I can't get over the green whenever I come to the PNW. It just has it's own sense of beauty that can't be found anywhere else!
Luckily this fun ice cream shop was right down the street! They have the most unique flavors and they were so nice about letting us taste test as many as we wanted!
We ended up getting pear and bleu cheese, honey and lavender, salted carmel, and balsamic and strawberry. They were all divine!
We also made a stop at the best stationary store down there! This was the first typewriter I had seen that was in cursive! There was also one in Hebrew. So cool!
It was a wonderful day!
