Yesterday we took Charles’ folks to the airport. It was a gorgeous, sunny day (of course) so we took the scenic route which included a visit to Vista house.

In their gallery, they had posters that featured every famous spot in the area: Timberline Lodge, The Mosier Tunnels, Multnomah Falls, Vista House… and I realized that we had been to every one of them in the past four days.

It was a fabulous visit and we’re already missing them.

Then today we had a wonderful dinner with Katherine & Christina

As well as old friends Susan & Holly.

There was only one small threat of a political argument between Katherine and I (about school funding) but we both knew it was all in control. The others weren’t so sure and drifted off into the kitchen to get away from us. Susan finally asked Dad about Ecuador trip and the evening was saved.
