Stepping Back In Time--Tip Toe Through the Roses?

So today we go back to the 1990's. This picture was taken in 1998 when we made a trip to Portland, Oregon. We paid a visit to the Rose Gardens and Melody took time to stop and smell them

so fun to see shots from so close to home! I will go there this summer and show you how much they have grown!

[Cathie]

I was just thinking this looks like Portland, Brian! You'll have to come back some time!

Lovely. Isn't it funny...in 1998 we couldn't believe the 'new' millennium was upon us, and now we look back to that time with nostalgia! My goodness but time does fly on!
