From Our Facebook Page:
We had a picnic with a view of the Columbia River! Then a scenic drive over the Sandy River and through Troutdale. What a beautiful day for a drive, and a good day to try pickle flavored Doritos! 9/10 participants surveyed would recommend the chips, 10/10 would the scenic drive.
Love this so much

Today, we gather in reverent gratitude within the halls of Powell Valley Assisted Living and Memory Care to honor the men and women who have worn the uniform of our nation with pride, courage, and devotion.
We come together not only to remember history, but to honor the living legacy before us. Those whose service safeguarded the freedoms we hold dear. You answered the call of duty, leaving behind comfort and familiarity to stand for something greater than yourselves.
Through sacrifice, perseverance, and unwavering faith, you defended liberty and helped shape the course of our shared destiny.
Your strength continues to inspire us. Your stories remind us that true heroism is not found in glory, but in service. And your presence among us today is a living testament to the enduring spirit of our nation.
May we, the beneficiaries of your courage, honor that legacy by cherishing the peace you secured and the principles you upheld.
On this Veterans Day, we extend our deepest gratitude and heartfelt respect to each of you.
May your hearts be filled with pride, your spirits lifted with appreciation, and your memories embraced with love.
Thank you for your service! Thank you for your sacrifice. And thank you for reminding us what it means to be truly brave.

A wonderful day in our Memory Care neighborhood! Chair yoga helped everyone start the morning relaxed and refreshed, and our afternoon of games brought out plenty of smiles (and a few friendly rivalries 😉). Every day is an opportunity to move, connect, and celebrate life together ❤️
