The Oregon Caves

Snacking in the woods, and eating at the cafe beforehand.

We are required to demonstate proficiency at the "cave walk" before we can enter. Hee hee.

A Trip to Hellgate

It's fantastic, really.

Hellgate Canyon is a beautiful spot on the Rogue River, that runs through my hometown of Grants Pass, OR. People come from all over to ride the Hellgate Jet Boats, and we were fortunate enough to take our whole family on the dinner trip. It was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Oregon. Makenzie wanted Aaron to comfort her on this trip! Tyler wanted Brian, and he wouldn't let go of his hand. The trip is very fast and intense, and the kids enjoyed it more on the way back.




The Bald Eagle that was above us. Beautiful.



The dinner was very yummy.
