Too Quiet Here Lately

Between spending a week and a half in Oregon, and hosting family from New Hampshire, it's been too quiet on this blog. Look for info later this week about our new offerings.

If you ever travel to the Pacific Northwest, you will have a hard time deciding what to see - because there is so much there to see. Two suggestions - One, The Oregon Garden in Silverton. Set on a hillside overlooking the farming area (lots of orchards, including nut trees), with a great view and many different gardens, it's a must see.

In the southwest corner of Washington, there is a narrow little peninsula, perhaps only 5 miles wide, with the world's longest driveable beach. Ocean on one side, and a bay on the other, there are clam and oyster beds, and because of its narrow size, there are tsunami evacuation route signs all over the peninsula. At the SW end, there are several lighthouses, one of which we climbed to the top.

End of travelogue, back to work!
