I live on the big island of Hawaii, retired, and am going to Bend in August. I have already decided to move over there so been checking out pictures. Yours are great, glad to know there is a Starbucks. Judy

Hi, Beth...

I had surgery a few weeks ago and haven't visited your gallery in a while. I missed it! Lady, you are da bomb! I love your photos, and hope that someday I can be half as good! Funny thing, I live in New Jersey. My only sister just bought a house in Bend Oregon, so it was really a treat for me to see your excellent photos from there. I so wanted to know what she was experiencing. She might as well be in London for goodness' sake! I look forward to seeing many more of your excellent and creative photography. Stay happy and well. ;)

Sincerely,

Willa Dios
