So, a few pictures from yesterday's trip to Grand Ronde, 18 June, car show (in the rain) :




 

I didn't take a lot of pictures, it started raining pretty steady. So, we had breakfast and drove home.
Last Sunday, 12 June 2016, we went to the airport and got to visit a little with Mikayla, Madison, and Grace. It was Madison's Birthday :)  We talked with The Douglas family for a little while, then rushed to the other end of the airport to pick up Kelly, Savannah, and Jackson. After a short nap session we had a small window of good weather at the coast...so, Cannon Beach was our destination !!


The wind was pretty strong, so we didn't stay too long. But, the kids got to "go to the beach" and I got my ocean fix. We had lots of fun visiting and catching up on what the kids are up to this summer.
 
Thursday we took Kelly and the kids back to the airport :(   Carol and I had breakfast and went to Hillsboro to look at a Honda we've had our eyes on...


We traded the 2002 Ford van in on this 2016 CRV. We took it to Grand Ronde yesterday for the Car Show and got 32.9 MPG :)
Will share pictures of the car show soon. HAPPY FATHER'S DAY to all you Dad's out there!!!

I honestly don't know where the time goes! So much has happened since my last posting!! Here goes...hope I can remember everything :)

On Saturday, 21 May, we went to Clay and Cindy Nagel's house for dinner, along with the  Lash's and the Bartlow's. After dinner we all went to Lake Oswego and attended the play "Man of La Mancha". I've seen it done before, and thought they did a great job! Fun night out! 

Friday, 27 May, Carol and I packed up the van and headed for Redding, CA to visit with Roberta and the kids. Great weather and smooth driving all the way. It was really great to see everyone and the kids are growing like weeds!!! Charity and Joy brought their families and we had a BBQ while the kids were swimming. The added bonus was... we got to talk to Andrew on the phone. We had to leave in the late afternoon and stopped at Seven Feathers in Cannyonville, OR overnight. Sunday morning we were back on the road home. This was the Memorial Day weekend, so I had Monday off. 

Today, 12 June, we're getting ready for Kelly and the girls to fly in from Denver. So, I'll post more soon and do better with pictures!
