Due to Josh's motor needing some TLC from the engine builder who lives in Grants Pass Oregon, Josh surprised me and took me away on a little ocean getaway. We lefted Friday morning @ 4, made our stop in Grants Pass and then headed for Brandon Oregon. As we sat and watched the sunset while having dinner, Josh and I couldn't think of the last time we had taken a weekend getaway. That was because it has NEVER happened. There has been a night here or there that we have lefted the kids, but never 2 nights. And the last time we were at the ocean just the two of us was before kids, so that was about 8 years ago. It was truly an AMAZING time and very much NEEDED. Thank you Lyndsy and Sally for offering to keep our little monsters while we were away and thank you Uncle Lyndsy and Aunt Ashley for helping out and keeping everyone under control. The kids had a great time while dad and mom were away.
The weather was GREAT!! Nothing like it usually is in Winter when we are here.
We had a ton of fun and I'm sure the people watching us jump and laugh at our pictures thought we were crazy!!
We had made plans of making a few stops on the way home, but due to the pickup breaking down in Portland and putting us about 4 hours behind schedule I only got to take pictures from the car window as we drove by. There is some amazing scenery between here and Bandon.

ReplyDeleteGood for you two to get away...FUN! The one picture of the wind machines looks like the place near Goldendale where Dan raced in a 6-hour motorcycle race this spring.
