Burning Leaves and Braided Hillsides

A weekend trip to Corvallis, Oregon made time for a scenic drive (4 1/2 hours to be exact!).  As my car cruised down the highway I couldn't help but see snapshots in every scene I passed.  A miniature hazard to the road (yes I admit it), I repeatedly reached for my camera phone to document the rich textures and tones of Oregon and Washington.  

-A graceful green pasture scattered with sheep mirrors the brilliant blue sky dotted with clouds.

-Leaves burn brightly along the highway, as their yellow, orange, and red colors throw sparks at the blue sky.

-Perfect rows of apples trees and grape vines create braids of life on the rolling hills.
