Oregon

Hello world!!! Long time no see. I'm attempting to catch up on things. And making things more interesting. I think the reason I quit posting here is because the design of this blog was seriously lacking. So I'm going to take the next couple of days and work on that.


Goals:

1. UP.DATE. Update, update, update.

2. Get better at this whole editing thing. It's a work in progress.

3. By.... let's say September, I want to have my DSLR camera. My little Nikon S8000 is great. But really, I mean business.

Back in August, my family took a trip up to Oregon, we drove all the way up the coast on the 101 from northern California all the way up to Portland. It. Was. Beautiful. Here's just a few pictures from the trip:




Stopping at the Salt Flats. Brighton was so excited to lick the ground.






The trees, the mist, the SMELL. OH how I wish you could SMELL this picture. It's one of my all time favorite smells.




Our lovely mode of transportation: Walter the Winnebago.




These two were taken at our first camping spot along a HUGE ole' river. It was super red-neck, but oh so lovely. The flowers were incredible! Don't worry, you'll see them, I plan on having a whole post just for the flowers.


I think this sign speaks for itself. It's just funny.





Spending time at the first beach we went to.



Gosh I love my sister. She's such a little creep.


Horsetail Falls. Just a little ways away from Portland.


The biggest, nastiest, greasiest, awesomest, burger I have ever seen. All 8 of us couldn't finish it. At a little burger joint in Boise.
