Birthdays in Timber Cove
When we returned from Green Valley in May, we stopped off to see Tanna
and Stephen in Timber Cove. Since it was the day before Amelia's
birthday (same day as Harry S. Truman's birthday), we were greeted by a
gaily decorated house.
Hailey also showed up, and we all (except me, it looks like) took a
hike along the coast.
Here's Hailey
and Tate. Since we had missed Stephen's birthday in April, we had a
joint celebration.
Here's the birthday
girl and the
birthday boy.
Memorial Day weekend
Tanna and Hailey
came up for Memorial Day weekend, here getting settled into their digs.
A trip to Oregon is never complete without the girls and dogs taking a
hike on the Bear Creek
Greenway. Here they are with the
dogs included.
Tries for a
formal picture or
two always wind up
with someone looking strange (about like informal pictures, in that
respect). Oh well.
Grants Pass area excursion
The next week week we went to visit our friends,
Linda and Ron
(here with Amelia) near Grants Pass. We took a little hike on the
Limpy Creek Botanical
Trail. Here's Amelia and Linda taking a
brief respite
along the way. Limpy Creek Trail is a wonderful trail with lots of Spring
(well, it was spring back then) wildflowers, of which there will be many
pictures forthcoming. Watch for the "Mostly Flowers" posting, soon to come.
SOLIR Picnic
As usual, the
SOLIR Picnic
on June 8 was a good success (OK - if you try to please everyone, someone isn't
going to like it!). Thanks to the persons responsible, Ina (second from
left, seated, facing camera at the near table), and Richard (nowhere to be seen
here, I guess).
Out of town guests
Just after the picnic, Don and Becky came in from Albuquerque for a few days.
On Saturday, Mark and Darla came down from Eugene. Here are the
"girls" on the
bridge on the Bear Creek Trail. A little later, we conned a passing
photograher into getting a shot of
the whole crew.
Then, just a week ago, Joan and Larry breezed into town for a couple of
days. Sunday afternoon,
we set off on a tour
of Ashland. We eventually wound up at a cafe beside Lithia Creek, where we
and Joan and
Larry enjoyed a
cool drink of lemonade.
