We stopped by Dad O'Connors while we were in Oregon. We got to see the ocean! I dipped my toes in but it was way too cold for much else. There were also seals and rose gardens and cool rock formations.
Rory convinced me to ride down this tiny path to the beach to get a break from riding in the car. I nearly died! Well... not really but it was an experience. I've never mountain biked before and didn't have any technique. I pointed my bike down and tried to stay on. Good times.
The day after Crater Lake we stopped at a little hike to Fall Creek Falls. The hike and the falls were gorgeous! Our cars air conditioner broke on the way to the falls so it was nice to get out and stick our feet in the water. We got some grumpy looks by some of the other hikers. Bet they had A/C.
Rory and I took a trip to the Oregon coast because we are unemployed..... and thought we'd spend some money. On the way over we stopped at Crater Lake. What a view!!! I recommend it to anyone who hasn't been. We didn't get to spend much time there because we didn't reserve a camp site and they were all full. So we did a hike, took some pictures, bought our souvenirs, and drove on.
Part of our graduation festivities was a hike to Darby Wind Cave. It was gorgeous!!! The flowers were all in bloom and the sun was behind clouds so we weren't too hot. We only got rained on a little. My mom and brothers and sister came and Rory's mom and sister came. It was a great little hike.
