Oregon

It's been nearly three months since we moved to Portland and we have been having lots of fun discovering Oregon!  From the coast to the desert, we have been keeping busy in this beautiful state.  I went thru our cell phones today and weeded out the best pictures of our latest adventures.


 Today, at the Portland Japanese Gardens

Earth Day hike, right down the street from our house in Forest Park.

Fishing!

Like Daddy, like sons.  They have gone fishing two weekends in a row now.

Cannon Beach, Oregon at Haystack Rock.  Recognize it?  It was on the final scene of the movie Goonies as the ship sets sail.

 More adventures to come, I'm sure!  Hopefully, some with those of you who read this blog.  Greetings from cold, rainy, snowy, sunny, warm, beautiful Oregon!
