Oregon

The past few days we have had a wonderful visit with Ashley's Aunt Marian and Uncle Les. The view in Oregon is very beautiful but strange. It's warm but you can still see snow on the mountains. Matt was also very taken aback by the law that you can't pump your own gasoline. Aunt Marian took us to her friend's house, where we got to ride his horses and see how he trains them to do tricks. Aunt Marian and Uncle Les took us to Billy Chinook overlook which was a great view. They also showed us the prison where they work and took us to the park where we put their dogs Gipsey and Geisha in swings. But most of the time we hung out at the neighborhood pub, where there are actually slot machines right in the bar! Matt says the bar reminded him of Cheers, because everyone is friends, and all of them are very nice and accommodating. It was a very relaxing time. Sometimes you've gotta go where everybody knows your name! Thanks Aunt Marian and Uncle Les for having us and sharing your 31st anniversary with us! Off to Seattle...
