Oregon Coast

Last weekend we went to the coast with the Fitche's (isn't it funny that we call it the coast in Oregon and the beach in California). On Saturday we met up with Erik and Marnia Koslow and the dudes went surfing at short sands. It was really fun for several reasons:

1. Samantha can really enjoy it at this age.
2. We haven't seen the Fitche's 4 eva.

3. It was my last free weekend without homework. (I started a Masters in Teaching program)

4. There was a camp fire on the beach to warm ourselves after we surfed.

The Fruit Loop

O.K. I haven't blogged for 4 months but now I am feeling ready to blog as much as a geek plays computer games. Right now we are in Hood River Oregon with the McGarry's. There is a 35 mile loop where you can visit over 20 farms. Today we went to this organic farm with really good apples and an amazing view. We rented this vacation home on-line and when we arrived at it this afternoon it was funny because the 2 pictures of it on the internet are like the 2 nicest things in the house, the rest of the house feels like it was pieced together from scrap wood and thrift stores! Our room doesn't even have a door. We are having a great time though, it is nice to get the heck out of dodge every once in awhile.

Free Ski Day

I remember a time when a hated free ski day. The Grizwalls and the gapers all over the mountain. Now I live for free ski day, funny how things change. I went with Kevin Wright, Rick Cummings, John Fitch, Gary Christenson and Jeremy K. We slashed it up from summit to sunrise. Go free ski day!

Skate Skiing

For the last 2 weekends hp and I have been able to go skate skiing! We have kind of been busy all winter having babies and stuff so we haven't been able to get out to much. It is Spring time now and the snow is melting quick.
