In late April 2006, I got the opportunity to go to Portland, OR for a conference on Wetland Mitigation Banking. Yes, I know I’m a computer scientist…it was work related, trust me. 
(As a computer scientist I get to work on all sorts of project topics.) I haven’t completely finished going through all my photos, but I have a good start. Click on the thumbnail to be taken to a gallery where the pictures are. I’ll be adding more as I get them done.
The gallery contains photos from a field trip we took to a wetland banking site, Some random shots from downtown Portland, and photos from a visit to the Japanese Gardens.
