Re: Exodus

I like the Forestry Center too. I read that it will be closed down soon, budget/use issues. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Theresa G." <macycat3@sbcglobal.net>

Oh- and the Japanese tea garden is near by the rose garden. I went about 5 years ago. Very cool.

Yes, it is, Melody. I've been there a few times--most of the surviving members of my mother's tribe moved there in the 60s for some reason. I remember especially the Rose Test Garden in Washington Park. I don't much care for roses, but that garden was so spectacular when I was there that I almost became a convert.

Jim: What I've seen of Oregon is absolutely stunning. Marty and the kids
and I got out there a few months before Tony died...I wanted to meet him
and his lovely Janice before his cancer made it impossible. We all fell
in love with the place...truly, truly breathtaking. In what part of OR
does your sister reside? BTW, I'm sure if you are anywhere near
Portland, Janice would probably love to have you see Tony's garden...I
know she worried something terrible about not being able to keep up with
it after Tony died as she is not a gardener...he had some magnificent
plantings!



Blessings in Christ's mercy,
