Fun in Oregon

We love the Oregon coast.  Nice places to see, great weather mixed with crazy weather! 

...We started with some golf

 

 The landscapes are incredible...

 We did some beachcombing...looking for agates...

 A surprise...

 A beautiful hike to a suspension bridge and waterfall...

 A community Indian Salmon Bake...

 Some geocaching for fun...

 An aviation museum with an indoor waterpark...
yes those are slide tubes coming out of the 747! 
(here's a link to a video showing how they set the plane on the building

And a warm welcome home!

No more slide shows?

I have discovered that not everyone can view the slide shows created in Windows Movie Maker.  I liked being able to combine video and pictures and not take up much room on the blog page.  But until I can convert or find a program that can work universally I'll go back to a few stills.  Of course, that may be a gift to all :-)))

Surprise!

In His Hands...

This was in an email I received in the days just following the attacks...

On the road again...

Neither accidents, nor back surguries, nor Grover's disease, nor shady repairmen nor full campgrounds shall keep them from their appointed travels!  It was so nice to have GGPa and GGMa be able to enjoy their motorhome again and to be able to travel with them for a bit.  It was fun to have Bailey come with us too.  We had lots of laughs and great camping food, walked to the top of the lighthouse, hiked down to the beach and paddled the river.  Great times!  Now back to work to get some rest.  We are blessed for sure.
