Diversity is Oregon's middle name

I was driving down the road and found this old round up corral out in the middle of no where in Central Oregon and when I went to put the camera out the window to get a photo for reference for painting I saw the snow covered mountain in the mirror and thought, yep that is Oregon, everywhere you look is a different view.

Oregon has it all, snow covered mountains year around, history, ghost towns,desert,ocean,big cities. Our people are as diverse as our landscape. Even our weather is diverse. People think of rain when they think of Oregon, well this side of the mountain gets about 12" a year.  We have rainy areas, dry areas and everything in between.

Whatever you are looking for you can find it in Oregon, the most beautiful state in the union. I love Oregon and so proud of it roots and its people.
