Stonehenge in Washington

We've made many trips across the Columbia River going between Washington and Oregon and have seen this memorial in the distance, not knowing exactly what it was. A couple weekends ago, we decided to stop. And wow....It is amazing. A man named Sam Hill built this replica of Stonehenge to honor those Washington soldiers who paid the ultimate price for our freedom in WWI. It was finished in 1930 and shortly after Sam Hill passed away. His final resting place is at the base of the bluff where this Stonehenge sits, overlooking the Gorge.

It was a very emotional stop. In the inside of this monument there are plaques on the 13 columns in memory of the fallen soldiers. Such a beautiful tribute. And definately worth the 5 minute out of the way trip.

Working on Figuring all this Out!

I am not a blogger. I don't know how to create all the cool graphics you see in most blogs....but I'm trying to learn. Might take me a while, but sometime soon, I hope this blog page will be up and running!

There are so many amazing things getting ready to explode at Secret Window Photography! As spring time is upon us, outdoor sessions are back in full swing! We've just completed a trip thru the Columbia River Gorge and have another trip to Ocean Shores, WA planned for the weekend after next. Can't wait to share some of the amazing beauty of the ocean! All this is in preparation for our next big adventure! This summer, we are planning to be a part of the Wenatchee Valley Farmers Market in Wentachee, WA. This is a great opportunity to share of work with the hundreds people that visit every weekend! We'll be offering sneak peaks of some of the images...others, you'll have to come out to see!

So...stayed tuned. Many fun things to come! Couldn't be more excited!
