I took this today at Beacon Rock State Park, which is famous for being the location of Beacon Rock. However, I didn't go on Beacon Rock, I just walked along the river. This is one of those photos where I think what could be bad conditions made the photo more interesting:

I know all these majestic natural areas are nice, but sometimes I get a lot more enjoyment out of just going to local parks. The Portland area has a lot of small and midsize parks that are great places to meet and just watch people. I think that a lot of goons would enjoy this one:

 I'm in Arcata, California, and I took a hike in Arcata Community Forest yesterday. This is really just a local tract of land, and its pretty small, and doesn't have the towering redwoods of some of the nearby areas. But even with that, its hard to explain what these forests are like until you've been in them. They also don't photograph well. Its hard to really capture the scale of the trees, and often its bad lighting (and sometimes with a brighter sky above, which makes the photo blurry). But here is an attempt at capturing the area.

Did I mention that I moved to Chile? Because I did, in April, and its been mostly a good time. Its about to hit winter solstice here, but at the 33rd parallel, that isn't too much of a problem. It is a long way to anywhere that would be called nature. Chile has some wonderful wilderness, but I don't know how to get to it. So last Friday, I took a bus to the eastern edge of Santiago, and then started walking Eastwards, climbing the foothills of the Andes, until I got to this viewpoint:  I hope to see more of Chile, and have better things to share! Soon enough!
