Camping!

This past weekend we headed out to Waldo Lake for some "good camping". We picked up my daughter's boyfriend on our way, and the 4 of us rode bikes, paddled around in a rubber raft, went for hikes, watched the sunset, gathered firewood, made lichen beards, cooked hot dogs over the campfire, marshmallows for s'mores, found teensy frogs, salamanders, tossed the foxtail, played cards while sipping vino, spent a chilly first night sleeping in the tent & a roasting 2nd night, relaxed, & had a generally fabulous time together! 

On our way, we stopped in Oakridge for an A & W root beer float, swirl ice cream cone (which my daughter was disappointed to discover was vanilla & root beer ice cream, not vanilla & chocolate!), french fries & a sub, and while waiting for our order I spied this!


Such beauty.
