Introducing the very first 'Taters - and blue taters, at that! - that I've EVER grown! I know they look purple, and they kinda are, but the inner flesh is deep, purple-blue. I'll be honest, it makes for some funky looking Potato Salad, but the flavor is what makes these so amazing to me. I'm growing twice as much next year! #grandtetonorganics #jwgirl #jw_snapshots #oregongrown #bluetaters #blueheirloompotatoes #oregonnative #pnwonderland #pnwharvest #teachchildrentogrowtheirfood (at Aumsville, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bnr5mL9nU9cqpjhXqumFVz7OabJtPj0cXHjX0Y0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1q67x0fkw0ruc

Have you ever seen a sunflower grow like this? It was as large as a dinner plate when suddenly this opening showed up. I'm still waiting to see what it's going to do next. #sunflowers🌻 #uniquesunflowers #oregonexplored #volunteersunflowers #whatwillitdonext #jw_snapshots #jehovahscreation

Have you ever seen a sunflower like this? It's got flowers and seeds on the BACK. I've seen all king of flowers and wildflowers throughout my life, but nothing prepared me for THIS particular flower. It's not only gotten these on the back, but this is also solid black on the front. #uniqueflowers #sunflowers #onlyinoregon #pnwonderland #jwphotography #jw_snapshots #bookofcreation #oregonlife #oregonflowers #jehovahshappypeople (at Aumsville, Oregon)

Pretty scary seeing this less than 5 miles from my home. This was the closest I got, and it was TOO CLOSE, so I turned tail and went home. Yes, I'm still keeping track of it. #oregonwildfires #oregonwildfires2018 #smokeoverthehorizon (at Aumsville, Oregon)

Look who came to visit at 11 a.m. this morning. Yep, Mr. Opposum was a bit confused when I tried to reason with him that THIS particular neighborhood was going to get him killed. Since that didn't work, a wonderful Officer from the Aumsville PD came to both of our rescues, capturing him with a dog catch-pole and hauling him down to the ponds where there's lots to eat. There are many reasons I'm happy that we moved here, and friendly, helpful police are a big one. Those of you in Josephine County, I'm praying for your safety since you've got no police assistance. ☹ Thank you, Jehovah God, for helping us move HERE! #oregonspring #oregonoutdoors #oregonwildlife #opposumsofinstagram #opposumeviction #keepwildlifefree #aumsville #aumsvillepdrocks #loveourleos (at City of Aumsville)

This is one of my most favorite roads on the planet. It's taken me a long time to realize that I can't live more than a day's drive away from the Redwood Coast or I just lose a part of myself. If you've never been there in person, please go there as soon as you possibly can - it's as close to Paradise as a person can get!!! #pnwonderland #redwoods #californiaredwoods #jwgirl #jwcreation #jw_photographers #jedidiahsmithredwoods #howlandhillroad #stoutgrove #livingforjehovah #livingforparadise (at Howland Hill Road)

Buying an orchid in bloom is one thing, having it bloom even bigger the next year is amazing! I love this orchid and apparently it likes me back. #orchidlove #orchidlover #jehovahsbeautifulcreation #flowerpower #jwgirl #ilovenature #phaelenopsis (at Aumsville, Oregon)

I took this video in April 2015 in Gold Hill, Oregon where I fed a flock of Hummingbirds every day. As you can see, they weren't afraid of me one bit! (at Gold Hill, Oregon)

Kevin and I walked out of the rehab facility that Mom is now recuperating in, and this is the light show we saw. What a wonderful thing to see on our 29th anniversary. I love you, Kevin! #sunsets #jehovahsbeautifulcreation #noeditingrequired #29thanniversary #celebratinglove #pnwonderland #sunsetsoveroregon (at Payette, Idaho)

Even after being burned so severely by the #eaglefire #multnomahfalls is still one of the most beautiful jewels of the #pacificnorthwest in my humble opinion. #pnwonderland #jwcreation #jehovahsbeautifulcreation (at Multnomah Falls Lodge)

This is what greeted me when I took my dog outside for her "evening constitutional". I'm determined to enjoy I these last few sunsets before the winter truly sets in and the darkness of the season keeps the sun locked up until Spring. #unedited #sunsets #easternoregon #paintedsky #lateautumn #pnwonderland (at Payette, Idaho)

I LOVE living in a small town! This kind of yard "ornament", a.k.a. wagon, is truly my kind of style. Not to mention that I'm envious over the porch covered with firewood, too; I sure miss having a woodstove! #oregonhistory #easternoregon #pnwonderland #oldtimewagons #uniquelawnornaments #ontariooregon (at Ontario, Oregon)

I had to look at my photos from awhile ago because it's been cloudy and cold here in Eastern Oregon for several days; I hope the sun is shining wherever you are. (at Oregon)

Tonight's show was positively magical! #sunsets #pnwonderland #natureslightshow

This was visible for only a few seconds yesterday. As you can see, it was spectacular! #sunsets #pnwonderland #jehovahsbeautifulcreation
