If you’ve never been to Oregon, you will no doubt add it to your bucket list after you flip through Barbara Tricarico’s Oregon books. You will find yourself mesmerized by the unique beauty captured in the stunning photographs of the place. And if you’ve visited Ashland, you’ll want to buy a copy of her “Ashland” and Ashland Day Trips” books to keep your memories fresh until you can visit again.

I keep both of Barbara Tricarico’s books, Ashland Oregon and Ashland Oregon Day Trips on my coffee table. Not only are they great conversation starters, but also make lovely gifts for out-of-town visitors. The stunning photographs are a testament to Ms. Tricarico’s keen eye and talent to capture the essence of a unique town nestled in the foothills of the Siskiyou Mountains, and the environment only a day trip away. Her use of light and shadow make each photograph come alive. Every time I open either book at random, I am amazed and delighted.

Barbara’s books make great gifts for people who’ve visited Oregon and have fallen in love with it, for people lucky enough to move here, and for those people back home who wonder, “You’re moving where??” Like they say, a picture is worth a thousand words, and the pictures here say it all. The photos Barbara has chosen capture Oregon’s natural beauty and the charm of its small towns–almost as good as being here! And for the adventurers on your gift list, the Ashland Day Trips book offers ideas for day trips that will appeal to a wide variety of ages and interests.
