Birding south of Burns over Memorial Day weekend we discovered what really lies at the end of the rainbow in Harney County: an abandoned and wrecked farmhouse.

Most people come here to Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in spring, summer or fall. They don&#8217;t know what they&#8217;re missing by skipping the remote vastness of eastern Oregon&#8217;s Harney County during the months when the landscape is brilliant with cold and almost completely empty of people.
We&#8217;ve been making regular winter trips here for the last [...]]]></description>

We&#8217;re not, as a rule, that fond of golf resorts. But Sunriver &#8212; outside Bend near Mount Bachelor &#8212; was so Christmasy during the holidays we had a ball staying there and skiing for a few days. Fresh snow blanketed the desert and it felt like a true winter wonderland.
The lodge was thoroughly decorated and [...]]]></description>

We don&#8217;t know whether it&#8217;s the two-headed calf, the delicious patty melts or the 21 stillborn fawns that are stuffed and mounted along the walls &#8212; but we love this place.

American Express commissioned him to create the centerpiece for a monument to Sept. 11 for its New York City headquarters&#8230;.&#8221;

Rasmus Petersen, a Dane who came to Oregon in 1900 and died here in 1952, loved rocks. To see what he managed to do with them as an artistic medium, you need to travel pretty much to the middle of nowhere &#8212; OK, a few miles outside of Redmond, Oregon &#8212; and drop in on [...]]]></description>

The Wallowa Mountains in northeast Oregon are a spectacular glaciated granite range &#8212; not a series of bumps in forested terrain like the Cascades to the west &#8212;  and are best seen on foot, hiking and backpacking.
If walking, hiking, backpacking and sweating your way up a steep mountain don&#8217;t appeal to you, there&#8217;s the [...]]]></description>

Joseph, Oregon, is an intentionally quaint town (though not as dreadful as Sisters) in the far northeast corner of Oregon, near Wallowa Lake and the Eagle Cap Wilderness, for which it serves as a gateway. Some years ago it became a center for bronze casting and has billed itself ever since as an art town, [...]]]></description>
