Destination rides

Washington Park Rose Garden with
a view of downtown Portland

I love rides with a purpose.  Today I headed from home and went up to the Washington Park Rose Garden. The roses seem to be at their peak this time of year, a bit surprising since it's mid August.

After touring the gardens I headed down to NW Portland to my second destination - lunch with Craig.

Council Crest Park looking West toward home

Third destination -  Council Crest Park.   Makes for a nice 20 mile noon ride.
