The Lily Pad (A Floating Home)

Do you love the water? Watching birds? Fish jump? All manner of boats cruise by?

There is nothing more relaxing and serene than the Lily Pad, a serene floating home located on the Willamette River on a bucolic farming island just 20 minutes from downtown Portland, 25 minutes to Beaverton—have the best of both worlds being close the city but far enough away from the rat race.

Beautifully appointed with antiques, artwork and comfortable furnishings, the Lily Pad has everything you need.

  • The California Condor was a common sight along the Columbia River in Lewis and Clark's day. By the early 1980's, there were only twenty-two left on the face of the planet, all in California. Today, thanks to a massive effort to re-populate the species via in-captivity pairing, there are some two-hundred members. But their recovery is far from assured. The Oregon Zoo has undertaken its own recovery effort whose ultimate goal is the re-introduction of the species into the protected wilderness area around the Columbia River Gorge. In short, to bring them home. For now, they live out their days in a vast, outdoor aviary designed specifically to mimic their habitat in the wild. If you have never seen one up close before, I urge you to come take a look. They are larger than any flying bird you will ever see, unless you go to Peru. And though black and white practically from head to toe, their plumage shines and reflects the light like dark, polished metal. If that doesn't suit your fancy, I will tell you that, as with all big birds, if you wait around long enough, they will do something so awe-inspiring that it will take your breath away, and something so goofy that you will laugh out loud. Either way, you won't be bored for a second. http://www.oregonzoo.org/discover/new-zoo/condors-columbia
