Oregon Coast Aquarium

Hiking in the forest

Near our cabin on the beach was a national forest. Most afternoons we would go for short hikes. On this hike we were searching for the giant spruce at the end of a trail.

VICTORY - Best Decorated Bike - 2008

Amelia and I spent a few hours today decorating her bike for the neighborhood party and parade.


Pre-parade trying to explain that it wasn't a race.


Posing with her trophy for pic that will appear in the neighborhood association newsletter. I think it was the helmet decoration that put her over the top.
