these hills are in central oregon... about the middle of the state
and that bridge.... oh my I hate that thing....
its much larger and higher than it looks...
last time we went over that thing dh put his hand over my eyes
cause I get litteraly sick from the height.
it connects washington and oregon....over the columbia river.
thought you all enjoy!
dont have any pics of holes except a natural one called the crooked river gorge by madras....
that one is horribly deep.
ha ha! you dont have to figure much to know I dont like it either!

Thank x for sharing those Jessie! :nod: I wish I had a camera, I would show you guys our new house and such. Did you make that site Jessie? Boy no flat land around there is there? We have both here, our hills are pretty mild, well I assume yours are mountains mainly. We are known for sand dunes some what I suppose. The upper peninsula is much prettier. I have only been there once when I was a kid. I wish I could live in Tennessee. Cool caves and rivers there. Lots of hiking. Do you go hiking much? I bet its pretty and a workout! Can you and have you gone skiing in the mountains or is it too dangerous with avalanches? What kind of soil do you have? Here is mostly clay or sand. We have a mix of some other but I am not sure what it is. What are your popular stores there? Here is ours: Walmart, Meijers, Lowes or Menards, Sams Club, Stapples or Kinkos, Rite Aid, generic fast food of course, Petsmart, Family Video or Block Buster, Marathons or Speedways or BP gas stations. Whew! That was a mouthful. Hey do you have any rivers for canoing? Now thats fun especially if the water is slightly rough. Do you have any Lilac trees that grow there? Now thats my favorite flower!!!! The best smell ever; we need to get one at our place! We have a lot of tulips here in Michigan. Sorry for the 20 questions; I'm just curious :D

no not my site.
we have flat land in other areas but mostly a lot of mts and hills.
we have the rouge river for rafting thats the big thing out here in oregon.
I havent done it but its pretty wild I guess.
we have skiing on a few mts. hood, bachelor. we dont have avlanches here so far.
hum popular stores... walmart, target, blockbuster, safeway, JC pennys,
mervins, gap, ross dress for less, columbia, patatgonia, levi stores,
but then with walmart they are getting so GROSS!
although a lot of folks still go there, I dont like to unless I really need to.
humm lilac trees? not that I know of but we do have lilacs!
sushi places here are thriving, and one makes some really good calamari,
and it doe'snt cost a fortune!

Core I sure wish I did boy I sure wish I did....
its very frustrating to be limited with this fear.
some hieghts dont bother me, others do... practically like that brigde..
or cliffs, high rises are like cliffs to me.
you'd love that thing and its called that for a reason! it has a higher arch,
and looks like a 1/4 mile down... although I know its not that far. LOL
love your attitude about the heights!
ok now for a link for rafting!
this is in southern oregon.
