Last weekend we took the two youngest kids and headed out on a day trip. We left really early in the morning and drove for a few hours then stopped and had some breakfast. We wanted to go to the beach but to try a different one. So we headed to West Port. We took the long way through some small towns that we had not visited before... checked out a great knitting shop and a chainsaw art shop that teaches classes.. Dave and John are both wanting to sign up for that. It was a beautiful drive through the country all day.. we did the best we could to stay off any freeways. WestPort itself was not very much fun.. they have a nice beach for surfing on but we did not find very much to do in town. We did love the visit to the lighthouse. Also found that the statepark in GrayLand is really nice and might be worth a visit. We had hoped to explore some areas near my mom for dirt biking trips this summer but the main road was closed due to an accident and it was getting late.... gives us an excuse to make another tip. We also have all decided we want to take a long weekend to explore Mt St Helens.
I put my etsy shop on vacation today. Surgery is next week and well.. I am looking forward to it.. to the break from having to do anything for a few days.. and really really looking forward to not hurting anymore. I am excited to be thinking about being about to go back to working full time...it has been over a year and i am done with all of this and really looking forward to it all being over.
Dave has a fun special weekend planned for us this weekend but he isnt giving me too many details.. whatever it is I will be taking photos and will be back to tell all about it ... well at least some :)
