ON FATHER'S DAY, 2001, MY DAD, SISTER, GRANDMA, AND I WENT HIKING...
IN THE BEGINNING OF SUMMER 2001, WE ALSO WENT TO THE BEACH (PACIFIC OCEAN) WHERE WE FLEW KITES.  :)
Here's me with my kite running in the surf.
Oregon has so many beautiful parks.  Also, there are so many waterfalls.  While driving to these waterfalls, we passed farms that grow grapes (for the infamous Oregon wine) and Christmas trees (another top export).  The state is beautiful and green, primarily due to the laws banning industrialization.  So, if you want some clean air, Oregon is the place to be!!!
I love the ocean.  We used to live in Virginia and we would go to Virginia Beach.  Now that we live on the West Coast, we can drive 2.5 hours to the Pacific Ocean.  It's cold but so beautiful.  Even though the day doesn't look warm, it was actually really nice and it felt so refreshing to be able to roll up my jeans and run in the surf and splash with my sis.  Aaah...I love water!!!
