Three from Cathedral Park, St. Johns, Portland, Oregon

01 March 2020 - 12:42 PM

Here are a few photos I took of the main neighborhood park in our part of Portland, St. Johns. This is Cathedral Park, located on the banks of the Willamette River under the St. Johns Bridge. The hills across the water are another, very large park - Forest Park, which is a 5,200 acre urban forest in central-city Portland.
