June 5, Wildlife Safari

Today we went in search of covered bridges, wild animals and wineries and we found them all. We saw two covered bridges; the one above is the Neil Lane Bridge and is one of the shortest in Oregon (only 42 feet) but it was really neat. We found two wineries; both of them were really small and in one of them (Spangler) we got to talk to the owner which was nice.









We took a drive through the Wildlife Safari in Winston, Oregon. It is a non-profit facility that works with injured animals. They are also nationally known for breeding cheetahs. We finally got to see bears. I tried to take a picture of an ostrich but in was hitting the window of the truck with it's beak and the only thing I could see through the camera was the beak! I just thought the pictures of the giraffe and llama were nice pictures so thought I would share. We thought we would have a sunny day but no - no rain but just a grey, cloudy day. We are off to California tomorrow so maybe we will see some sun.
