Mt. Hood- Timberline Lodge

Mirror Lake Hike

We all had a great time this weekend at the cabin we rented in Zig Zag, Oregon- hear Mt. Hood.  The cabin was prefect and we split of meals- so there was tons of tasty food.  All in all a great weekend!

Nisqually Wildlife Refuge

The Nisqually Wildlife Refuge is such a beautiful and peaceful place to go for a walk.  I'm so glad I live nearby.  The long boardwalk is really fun.

I'm off to spend the weekend in Zig Zag for Hannah's bachelorette party!  More on that next week :)

End of the trip

Temma and Dave's backyard

ferry houses on Macworth Island

Otter

family gathering

It was a great trip.  We had great weather, got to see a lot of people and ate amazing food (still recovering...)  I really love Maine and feel so fortunate that I have family to visit in this beautiful state!

Kitzels

We met up with Jesse (Lily) and Jack at Kitzels the other day.  It's Olympia's very own Jewish deli and it was delicious!

North New Portland

hedgehog mushrooms (we also found chanterelles, lobsters and oyster mushrooms)

I finally made it to a Marden's (discount store in an old Walmart building)

Adam's dad's finished house

On a ride with Adam's dad

Adam and his dad

We spent 4 days up in North New Portland with Adam's dad and his wife Donna.  Their house wasn't built 2 years ago when I last visited so it was exciting to get to stay in the house (with running water).  Last time we stayed in a tent- which was fun too.  The house looks amazing and Harry did a lot of the work himself.  We went for some good short hikes and I went for a motorcycle ride.  I fell in love with his 10 chickens (still  young) and can't wait to get some chickens of our own someday!
