Portland Japanese Garden in the Fall.

/ Barefootbuell

We thought since is was Wednesday it wouldn’t be crowded. But it was a special day, after all the sun was out in Portland. It was a long drive through the city to get there, but the trees glowed all along the side of the road.

We were lucky someone was pulling out near the gate and we got a place to park. Tickets for Seniors were $19 each but it was well worth it.

77 year old Bonsai

Rocks, colored leaves and falling water caressed out eyes as we sat upon a bench.
Reflections in color
The sun lit up the orange maples by the sand garden
There was also a display of kintsuge- beautifully restored pottery
Some of the restored vessels
A true feast for the eyes.
