Grant's Pass is Beautiful


After Courtney's graduation, we flew to Grant's Pass to visit Bekah, Matt and the kids. What a beautiful place! Every minute was an adventure and lots of laughs (because Bekah and Matt are so fun to be with and always keep everyone laughing)!

The Jet boats were a highlight -- also seeing a bald eagle and heron (birds) along the river.
Lucy and Livy reminding me a lot of Angela and Michelle!
River boats were a blast. It was unseasonably cold -- FREEZING -- but a blast!

When not out and about, we were spike balling, jumping on the tramp, visiting Jax and Lucy's school, 
going to Jax' piano recital and playing sardines after the recital.

Cousins bonding...

When you get to be a super hero with Uncle Matt...
Chris spent a morning in surgery with Uncle Matt. Felt queasy only at the beginning of the first one but felt great
for 2 more shoulder replacements. RESPECT!
We headed down to the redwoods and considered going to the coast. But instead stopped at a rock shop on the side of the road. (I have ALWAYS wished we could stop at the rock shops along the side of the road! Bucket List, check!)


After the redwoods, went to Oregon Caves which was super cool. 
I'm a sucker for all things geology-related!
And to top off the fun day, we saw two bears as we headed down the mountain (in the car). 
They walked right on the side of the road and up the mountain. 


On our way out of town, got a view of their volcano.
...and lunch at Luigis "famous Italian sandwiches."
