A single horse munching on pasture on field in Jefferson Oregon at my west coast damsel’s family’s homestead. Jefferson is in the county of Marion, it was established around 1851 then known as Conser’s Ferry named after its founder Jacob S. Conser. A small community with a population just over 3,000.

While in Oregon a few weeks during Easter weekend, we crossed the Jacob Conser Bridge over the Santiam River on Route 99E into Jefferson. A concrete rainbow through arch bridge built back in 1933 and with my affinity for bridges I asked my west coast damsel if we could go capture despite being a wee under the weather and she replied affirmatively.

The Jefferson Memorial is a presidential memorial in Washington, D.C., dedicated to Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826), one of the most important of the American Founding Fathers as the main drafter and writer of the Declaration of Independence.
Driving along Highway 26, north of Madras, I thought this was Mount Hood -- so I pulled off on a farm road to take a shot.
Then I looked to the right and I saw Mount Hood.
This is Mount Jefferson.

Montana Rail Link's Logan local (R-MRL8441) returns to Logan after working Whitehall. The 844 runs through Jefferson Canyon once a week to work a few industries at Whitehall. The canyon is very scenic, quite possibly the best scenery we encountered in Montana.

Fort Jefferson is located in Dry Tortugas National Park. This park is a cluster of seven small islands located 70 miles off the coast of Key West Florida. They were originally named "Las Tortugas (The Turtles) by Ponce de Leon for the abundance of sea turtles that once inhabited the area. The "Dry" was added later due to the lack of fresh water on the islands.
Fort Jefferson was a military installation that guarded the waters off the Florida Keys. During the Civil War, Union warships used the harbor to blockade Southern shipping. It was also used as a prison, mainly for Union deserters. Its most famous prisoner was Dr. Samuel Mudd who participated in the conspiracy to assassinate President Abraham Lincoln.

This is the old Walloomsac Inn, a very sadly derelict structure in old Bennington Vermont. It was built around 1764 - well, probably not this part, but the older rectangular front part. The title of this photo is a play on the New England placard 'George Washington slept here,' sometimes seen on old houses - the veracity of which is often unproven. However, in 1791, it is well-documented that Jefferson and James Madison actually did stay here when the two were visiting the new state of Vermont.
It was sad to see this place in the current state that it sits. It's privately owned and posted private property no trespassing, so I only took a few pictures from the road. I like how this one turned out under the canopy of a tree across the street.
I saw this cat walking through Jefferson Square in South Philadelphia. It took some time out to pose for a picture.
The first major wildfire of the 2017 fire season, the Whitewater Fire, was ignited by a lightning-struck tree and burned 11,500 acres last summer. You can see from the scorched trees just how close it came to this beautiful alpine meadow of lakes below Mount Jefferson. The fire appears to have worked its way up the mountain in a couple places too, until it ran out of fuel at the tree line.
One of my favorite pictures I’ve taken (in the comments below) was from the edge of a lake in this meadow looking at the mountain on a perfectly still morning. There was so much smoke last summer you couldn’t even see the mountain.
Another shot from my recent trip to Jefferson Park. I'm kind of interested in feedback regarding the very centered nature of the comp. Normally I would offset the shrub or mtn, but thought this take mixes things up visually for me. How do others feel?
I'm really hoping to make it up to the alpine areas before the snows hit. They just have to hold off for two more weeks!

Chased storms earlier this week near the Kansas / Oklahoma borders as storms started to form along the dryline at sunset. Intercepted this beast of a supercell near Jefferson, OK. This storm had amazing structure! It took 15 images to create this panorama to show the entire storm. One of my favorites :)

Beaumont, Texas: Historical Marker:
The first county building constructed at this site was a jailhouse completed in 1838, two years after the organization of Jefferson County. Located on land acquired from Nancy Tevis, a pioneer settler of the area, it also housed county offices and courts. When the commissioners court outgrew the facility, sessions were held in private homes. The first courthouse here was completed in 1854. Built by John A. Beaumont, it was a two-story square structure surrounded by a six-foot picket fence. Baptist and Methodist congregations conducted Sunday services in the building and during the Civil War it was leased to D. T. Inglehart, a Confederate surgeon, for use as a hospital. A second courthouse was constructed in 1893, twelve years after the incorporation of Beaumont. Designed by E. T. Heiner, it was a three-story red brick building with white trim. Following the area oil boom of the 1920s it proved inadequate to meet the needs of the growing population and was replaced by the present brick courthouse in 1931. Designed by Fred Stone and A. Babin, the fourteen-story building features art deco styling in the use of sculpted ornamentation and marble interior work.
