| | Okay, I am going to try another blog - it's breezesea.blogspot.com. But I'll continue to blog on here when I feel like it. As for using blogspot, I'll probably share my insights, thoughts and feelings... like what I think of what's going on in the society, what the everyday life is like in different parts of the world and so forth. As you can imagine, there are many things that we continue to learn everyday. For blogging on here - I think I'll gear towards personal (posting pictures on here, what I have been doing lately, etc). The entries on here will be public... because I don't want to pay for friends-only entries if I don't plan to blog much.
Anyway, it's been HOT all weekend! The degree was 84 last Friday, approximiately 94 yesterday AND it was reported that it will be 99-101 today and tomorrow!! Eep! Well, let's see if the weatherman is going to be right. It's a good thing that my office has AC when I go back to work tomorrow. But it's no fun being cooped up inside all day with all of the sun out there while I could have doing something fun now that it's summer. I had a meeting out of the city last week and was driving by one of Oregon's famous landmarks - Silver Falls. The last time I went there was when I was a YLC camper way, WAY back in 1994. How could I have NOT gone there! There are SO many places that I need to visit - Oregon's famous Rose Garden, Crater Lake (it has hot springs - whoo!), and many, many beaches that I want to visit (Cannon Beach, Seaside, Tillamook, etc!). I know there are so many places that I need to visit in Oregon. It's hard to believe that I just marked TWO years of living here in Oregon, so that's no excuse for not checking out many places as I could have. I still remember the day I moved here exactly two years ago in June 2004. Steve and I were driving cross the country for the final time - leaving the east for real with our two cats. Time is definitely getting faster as we get older.
Anyway, here's several pictures of me, my honey and wonderful friends Ben, Shelley and their kiddos (I just adore them!) in Newport and Lincoln City the past weekend. We had a great time there as we ate at Newport's yummy seafood restaurant, Kyllo's. But damn, the wind was to strong. The sand kept hitting on us and when we laid down, the sand kept getting in our face. Ugh. :) Anyway, enjoy!
 Immensly enjoying walking by the beach - it's always been one of my favorite things to do to this day

Kailea & Akira
Sorry, Shel - had to post this one because this is just a great picture!
Adorable Mariko & Akira (they were in the baby stroller to avoid the sand & strong wind!)
 Better view of the baby stroller that the kiddos were in
It's a BIG kite we've seen that day (The Kyllos restaurant probably put it up)
Ben & Steve gave up doing the kite-flying because the wind was so STRONG
Sorry, guys! |
