Camping

My favorite part about summer is getting to be outside basically all the time... my least favorite is when you feel like you can't get cool at all! That's what the beginning of our trip was like to Oregon. We started off at 96 degrees outside of Eugene at Cascara State Park... it was SO dry there that the lake we were supposed to be staying on wasn't quite there. It was about 1/2 mile or so away! But as we made our way to the coast it became much more bearable at a yummy 65 degrees in Coos Bay. These are just a couple photos from that trip- and some of the unfortunate surprises that come with road tripping.

Me and Eleanor at Cascara State Park... either we just gave her a bath or she's sweating profusely.

All this grass is where the lake usually is... it's amazing what this dry weather does to the landscape. The camp ground is to the left of this, in the trees. 

On the way out we had to stop and play some disc golf at Jasper State Park

2nd flat tire of the trip! Thank you Michael for changing both of them and to Les Schwab for changing the tires so quickly! 

Eleanor at Sunset Bay State Park- it was seriously the most beautiful beach... I want to go here and stay a while longer. Eleanor loved the beach, she's such a water baby already!

Someone didn't want to leave the beach.  

Michael took this photo... she loves him so damn much! It's beautiful.

Oregon was such a great state to visit and I wish we had seen more or stayed longer in 1 place. We will be back!
