The Jackson Bottom Wetlands Preserve lived up to it’s name on our second visit. It all started with a guy that could see the future…
In late summer 2018 the gang visited the Swan Island Dahlia farm located about 30 minutes south of Portland. We enjoyed an early evening frolic through the manicured rows as the sun set and cast a golden glow upon the dahlia delights right before our eyes.
We recently had our 24-month dating anniversary (July 2020). This year we didn’t go on an adventure due to Covid19 safety concerns. Last year we had such a fun time at Seaside, OR (July 2019) celebrating 12 months of dating that we thought we’d share some more pictures and stories of the fun!
While Arnold the Unicorn and Adam were enjoying a few solo days in New York last Spring, Fiona the Unicorn and Amanda took a jaunt to the countryside one Spring day with a couple of Amanda’s photo friends.
In April 2019 Adam, along with Arnold the Unicorn, went to New York for a few weeks for business. Adam (and Arnold) had three days free to spend in Manhattan.
This TOP SECRET gem is a favorite local spot for both of our unicorns – Fiona & Arnold! There is a fancy wooden walkway from the street that leads to a breath-taking view of the falls. The height of the falls is about the same as the height of a house. The falls are nice and wide too. From the wooden viewing platform, you are higher than the top of the falls and can see the water traveling along a stream below you and leading to the right.
It’s been a couple months since the Covid19 Virus went viral & everyone was ordered to Stay Home and Stay Safe. Since then we have both been on zero hikes. But we’ve found several ways to stay connected during these crazy times.
Both of us wore pink. It was not coordinated. This isn’t the first time we’ve dressed in matching clothes. We must have some kinda connection or something. No?
The third time we met up, back at the start of our relationship, we went to a small town restaurant. There were a million options on the menu. Something caught Adam’s eye and it was a good one! A fried rice delight with chicken, cashews, and other tasties… all inside a carved out pineapple! Say what?!
Amanda worked her photography magic. She knows what’s up when it comes to snatching beautiful pictures. She captured wonderful glimpses of the sun peeking from behind tulip petals & the unicorns dancing and playing near several puddles. Those reflections were ridiculous! Also, the unicorns couldn’t help but get rowdy on one of the ‘large’ tractors. They had SO MUCH FUN!!! It was ridiculous!
Let’s just say Arnold uses a perfect mix of rainbow magic and glitter magic to do REMARKABLE things. Some people call it cheating. But our unicorn can bench press more than your unicorn. Fact. He’s got skills but it hasn’t gone to his head. Arnold is just one kind and loving little guy. Oh, and Arnold has several doppelgangers. We call them all Arnold. Stick around and you’ll see what we mean!
The kind sweet unicorn we found was lost, scared and alone in a toy department. She desperately needed a home. We realized this would be a major commitment because unicorns become fussy if they don’t get their exercise. She needed to get out and explore on the regular. And when we looked into her face, we knew she was something we needed in our lives too. After we rescued her, we named her Fiona!
