Trip to Oregon

I just got back from a weeklong trip to Oregon. It was basically the best ever. I got to spend time with an excellent guy, his sister and brother-in-law, both of whom are phenomenal people, and an adorable 3-year-old girl (their daughter).

(Side note: I hadn’t opened up my computer since last Wednesday until about 15 minutes ago.)

I didn’t take very many pictures on this trip (I think that taking pictures of an experience can greatly detract from the experience — you’ll have a meta-experience that isn’t as good as the real thing), but here are a few.

Here's Peter driving (for the sake of a stereotypical road trip picture)

Here we are at the Festival, aka Mini-Holland.

And that was pretty much our trip, except for the Tillamook cheese factory, our visit to Portland, the car not starting and having it towed/fixed, and lots of picture books and Dave Barry. It was definitely a good trip.
