Silver Falls in June

After finals were over at WSCC, we headed south to Silver Falls State Park. Unfortunately, I (Jeff) found out the 2 bedroom cabin I had booked was actually for the week before - oops! But we found a nearby cabin and paid again for somewhere to stay for the night. The next day we hiked the "Trail of Ten Falls". It was 9 miles and wore us out!

Here are pics of 6 of the 10 beautiful waterfalls:

Upper North Falls, 65 ft.

North Falls, 136 ft.

Middle North Falls, 106 ft.

Lower North Falls, 30 ft.

Lower South Falls, 93 ft.

South Falls, 177 ft.

Ranch in June

Before Teresa joined me in Utah for Kaytie's wedding, I came down and drove over to the 7F Ranch for a few days! Here are a few pictures I took to help me remember some of my well-loved spots.

March/April (catching up 2 months at a time!)

Here I am back in March.

This is Chandler & Benson playing on our banana chair on a Sunday evening.

Cape Lookout State Park in Oregon.

For spring break I went to the coast with a couple friends - we stayed in a yurt!

The yurt was just a walk away from the beach. I actually stayed there with Daniel (Benson's dad) & Brandon (Chandler's dad). We played a few games of Settler of Catan!

The middle car is my pinewood derby car (yes, that is a can of potted meat strapped to the top).

Here is Teresa back in April (of course, now her hair is EVEN SHORTER!).

February Was Fun

I usually don't include many words, but here are a few "details" (just for you Kate) about what we are up to.
Teresa started a new job downtown at the Louisiana-Pacific Corporation as the Document Specialist in the claims department. I visited her yesterday and she works on the 10th floor of a big, gorgeous building right in the center of downtown. Nice view too. She's loving it - though it is hard to go to work while I have my 2 week spring break right now.
And me...well, I'm enjoying "my 2 week spring break right now." I managed to get passing grades for 2 quarters of chiropractic school, so I just gotta keep that up for the next 10.
Enjoy the pictures!

HIKE UP AND AROUND MULTNOMAH FALLS (PAUL AND ME):
