We were once explorers. Now we tend to stick closer to home. With the kids getting older and their sports to attend, homework projects to get done, a cat that gets lonely and other commitments, we haven't been our normal vagabond selves. This weekend we made ourselves get away for one night. We took some time to hike and check out some winter snow shoeing spots.
The above pic is the kids playing on stumps at Detroit Lake.
Greta in Bend. She really liked this buffalo out of metal.
Hiking at Smith Rock. The kids enjoyed watching all the climbers and there were ALOT and a bald eagle they liked to follow. Fieldin said he found it's nest but it was some dried juniper.. :)
On the hike.
we saw alot of deer driving around, here are some below
Mt. Washington. A quick stop for a picnic and some trail searching.
Now we are back and there is no place like home.. I don't think our travel days are over, maybe just on pause for awhile..even the kids that used to be as excited as me to get away were so happy to be back home. The cat on the other hand.. he was happy to see us and now looks like he is ready for us to leave again.
