Hillsboro-Orenco Station Walk

We start our walk at Orenco Station, lots of fog this morning!

One of the Gazebos we saw in the park, very pretty! We thought this would be a good spot for a summer wedding.

The 2nd Gazebo we came across, smaller but still very pretty

The floor under the 2nd Gazebo

Our walk takes us over the Max Station

We both really wanted to stop and go into this antique store (one of the original stores from the community of Orenco)

Yup, that is a chicken coop (seems I find them everywhere). This is a very fancy coop, it has real windows!

A beautiful old church we came across during our walk

Heading back to the car, this is the view before you cross the Max Station.

East Bull Mountain Park Walk

We came to walk this park to see a few of the Eagle Scout projects done this year (including Jack's).

lots of greenery

We stop and look at one of the Eagle projects, this is a rail and a set of steps (a boy from Jack's troop did this one). 

We make our way over to where Jack did his project, looks very different from when we were here this summer.

More of the trail that Jack put in. Jack did a great job! His section of trail is the nicest along this whole trail.

Another Eagle project, stones leading up to a picnic area.

More greenery, very pretty out here

The end of the Park. Was a nice walk out here today.
