Touring Oregon!

We have been very busy in the last week! Tristan's parents came and visited us for the weekend and it was great to show them around Reedsport. Tristan's cousin from Washington also happened to be in the area and we were able to see him as well. Then Beth's aunt, uncle, and cousins are now here for a visit and they are extreme tourists!!! Our days have been extremely full showing them around the beatiful Oregon coast. Today for example we started out with sandduning with ATV's - it was incredible! We each had our own Quad and took off racing up and down the sand hills ( It's up there on my list with Jet skiing. ) This is a must for anyone who comes to the Oregon dunes. After the dunes we rented sandboarding and sleds and attempted to sand board down the hills - it wasn't as great as we were hoping. After a nice picinic by the Heceta Lighthouse we drove further north to Cape Perpetua - there we split off and went hiking through the woods. Tristan and I chose the 6.5 mile trail and it was amazing. The woods were green and lush and very refreshing - even though our muscles may be sore in the morning. It makes us want to hike more! It's now 9pm and we are starting to BBQ. Looks like tomorrow is going to be just as busy as today!!!

Thanks everyone who is reading our blog - it's fun to share what's going on. Have a wonderful 4th of July!
