Central and Eastern Oregon
The wild landscape of Central and Eastern Oregon runs deep with history and diversity.
To the north, the mighty Columbia River meanders her way through 4,000 ft canyons. In 1986 it was signed into law as a National Scenic Area. In the central part of the state, lies the high desert and scenic Three Sisters Wilderness, Ochoco and Deschutes Mountains. To the south are the Steens Mountains. They too, have stunning carved gorges, wild rivers and are home to an abundance of wildlife. It is some of the most rugged and remote land still left in Oregon. My adrenaline continues to be fueled by adventure and exploring new places of historical significance that shaped the landscape. This gallery takes me back into our forgotten past of what we did, or didn't do to build our future.

Imagine living on this farm in the early-1900's with no electricity or running water, and when fields were plowed by the horsepower of real live horses, when trucks and cars were scarce, and your means of transportation was by wagon or buggy?
Eastern Oregon.

on October 17, 2021It would be difficult to image living in this homestead back in the days when it was new. We are so used to the modern conveniences of today. Nevertheless, I do love seeing the old farm buildings that appear to be in relatively good condition. When I see places like this, I can't help but spend a few moments wondering about the family that called this home. This is a superb find and capture. Very nicely done!
