Our Trip

Here is a visual rundown of our extended road trip. It was a great trip, but it's always nice to be back in your own bed.

Some of the highlights include:
  • 1st road trip in our passenger vehicle; so nice!
  • Hanging out with Megan, Search and Destroy (it was like we haven't been separated for the past 14 months; the kids just picked up where they left off)
  • My first attempt at water skiing; not successful, but we enjoyed the tubing
  • My first trip to Oregan. LOVED IT! Its so green and full of TREES! (The drive home was very depressing- CA looks dead in comparison)
  • Went kayaking at a lake. Very relaxing and beautiful
  • Went to Sun River and did a lot of biking, playing and swimming.
  • Drove through central OR. One of the most beautiful drives I have ever done
  • Washington Park in Portland (rose garden and arboretum)
  • Ride on the MAX
  • Shopping at Nike's employee store. (perks of having a brother who works there)
  • Visiting friends that we haven't seen in years. (Davis's and Russell's)
  • Megan and I are still friends after 10 days in very close proximity and not being around each other for over a year.
Lowlights:
  • 2 children getting sick after arriving in Medford(fevers and one threw up twice)
  • Not having Miracle Gro with us
  • Dragonfly puking all over himself 50 miles from home. (luckily this did not happen while I was driving solo)
  • Driving home (again... a depressing drive) It felt like I was gone for a month and yet,I still was not ready to go home.
