X-Country Skiing

Quick note about Three Creek Nordic trails. Beautiful! More so than these lame photos of course...

It's about 5 miles round-trip. A shelter w/ a stove awaits you to warm in at the far end. It wasn't cold tho. It's all up-hill going in - not too steep tho - with a looong glide back down. That was fun!


About 10 miles due south of Sisters.

The Nestucca drift

I've been a bit conflicted about posting this. While it was a great day on the river in some ways, it held much promise but didn't deliver. But that's life I figure - coulda been better but wasn't? - life in a nutshell! So accept it, enjoy it, even embrace it for what it is and celebrate the beauty and pleasure it brings you.



The weather was great, not cold, no wind. The water was great and there were fish around. None for us though.

PDX train trip

Gotta love the old Salem train station. Just a great landmark.






Amtrak is a nice relaxing way to travel too. 1hr 23min to Portand. Scenic, low-stress.

Headed to p/up Anna's Subaru @ http://fixmysuby.com
