from Bozeman to Portland and back

Awhile back I received a phone call from my friend Susan inviting me to go to Portland with her and Josephine.  Susan was running a crazy 197mile relay race from Mount Hood to Seaside, Oregon and she wanted me to hang out with Josephine.  This was my chance to have a vacation after a full summer.  Andrew joined Josephine and I as our partner in crime and chauffer.  It was a amazing race.  Andrew and I were also able to see our favorite Oregonian Aunt & Uncle.  I was also able to reconnect with some dear friends from undergrad.

On our way to Mount Hood
The relay team ready for the next 197 miles

Andrew, Jo, and I all went to a outdoor activity park while the runners were running.
Our favorite activity of the day!  A bunjee/trampoline!
 Andrew and I wandered our way home stopping at a rose garden, camping in Idaho at an RV park and stopping at an old used bookstore. It was a great trip of reconnecting with old friends and family.  My hope is it's only the first of other trips to Portland to come....
