Portland, Oregon and the Tualatin Crawfish Festival 2007

In August 2007 after not having a good vacation in a while, I decided to attend the 2007 Tualatin Crawfish Festival. I had just received an Oregon Scientific point and shoot digital camera and was starting to take photography seriously.

In this post are just a few of the pics snapped up the five days in the great Pacific Northwest. I’ll have many more when I get all the pictures together.

Of the many trips I’ve been on over the years, This is one of the most memorable. Not only was it the first of several visits to the Tualatin Crawfish Festival, but alot of fond memories of being in my former stomping grounds of Portland, OR.

That was my first time back in PDX in five years. Now 16 years later the Tualatin Crawfish Festival is no more and Portland seems to be having some growing pains, but I’ll be back.
