OREGON

A little slice of heaven where people pump your gas for you, shopping carts have cup holders, you can purchase beer and wine in grocery stores and the displays are cute, and something that costs $5 is only $5 because there is no sales tax!!

Bend welcomed us with a 60 degree bluebird day yesterday! It seriously felt like summer! We have been busy running around trying to get everything situated in our place but so far we love Bend and our house is awesome! The only room that is set up is Ed's office as he is back to work as of today!

We were a little nervous moving into a house we'd never seen before but it turned out great!! We have never had a garage before and are loving it! Same goes for the 2 guest bedrooms and guest bathroom. Come visit please!! 

The highlight for us and definitely the doggies has to be our fenced backyard complete with a horseshoe pit and 2 fire pits! We also have a front porch, back porch and backyard patio. The dogs are enjoying chasing each other in the backyard and Brody has seriously been doing laps for hours.

They also think the entire house is a dog bed and love it!

 (I guess we have never had carpet before, ha)

Blue and Red lights

Made it 3360 miles before getting pulled over! Luckily it was the nicest Oregon cop possible!! We didn't replace the light in Jackson afterall and it came back to haunt us, ha! Good news is we didn't get a ticket.

40 miles to Bend!!

Rollin along on the Oregon trail

After a slow drive out of Jackson in the snow, down the Snake River canyon and along Palisades Res., we hit dry roads at Idaho Falls and have been making great time across Idaho. Were just outside Twin Falls now, temps in the 40s and partly sunny. Hopefully in Boise by 330 or so.
Saw some cool wildlife rolling out of WY. An eagle flying over the river, a herd of elk at the feed ground, another small group of elk sitting in the snow on a hillside, a moose by Palisades and a coyote walking across a big field by Swan Valley. Also saw a phantom-tele-skier guy walking along the road way down in the canyon, apparently going to ski somewhere down there.

We are just leaving Jackson and plan on arriving in Bend tonight! Can't believe it!
