Taken near Joseph, Wallowa County, Oregon, USA |
I've just returned from a foray into beautiful eastern
Oregon. I’ll be writing much more about my visit to a land once crossed by the
Oregon Trail pioneers and now dotted with pioneers of today… ranchers, artists,
makers and craft beer brewers. But for now, I wanted to share this photo.
Eastern Oregon is full of expansive open spaces, mountain
vistas and wildlife. Considered one of the 7 Wonders of Oregon, and “Little
Switzerland,” the Wallowa Mountains are absolutely stunning.
This iconic red barn stands in contrast with the snow capped
mountains in late May. While there are many images on the Internet of this
beautiful barn, you have to stop and drink in the scenery for yourself. Take your own photo. A crisp
wind may toss your hair as you lift your camera to take the photo. Smells of
field crops fill your senses. Stop and enjoy all that eastern Oregon has to
offer. You’ll be enticed to slow down a bit.
