Todd Lake - September 30, 2018

James took Lincoln and Meta exploring this afternoon so Sierra and I could nap.  They went hiking around Todd Lake near Mt. Bachelor on the Cascade Lakes Scenic Byway.

Epic Baby - September 27, 2018

James' supervisor and wife (Brian and Amanda Ahern) came by with a present for Sierra and this cute pink "Epic Baby" hat from work. I love this hat. I love this man. I love this baby.

Wizard Falls Fish Hatchery and camping - August 26-28, 2018

On Monday the 27th, we visited the Wizard Falls Fish Hatchery and the headwaters of the Metolius River.

Family camping selfie.

This is the settling pond at the Wizard Falls Fish Hatchery - pretty day!

Metolius River - It pops out of the hills as a "full grown" river and it is not warm.

28th - Morning campfire - good morning guys!

Mountain biking - August 20, 2018

Lincoln's first mountain biking/trail riding adventure today at Phil's Trailhead.  We forgot his helmet, so he's using mine. Linc really likes the bump tracks. We had a pretty good time even after he crashed.  He's learning that sometimes fun things hurt.  The painted bird is called the "Screaming Chicken". It's paint scheme changes every couple of weeks, I think.
