This is getting published a little late, but we took a trip a few weeks ago for our anniversary up the coast and into Oregon.  We went as far north as Portland and then came back through Tahoe. A friend lent us her car for the trip, a hybrid Prius which saved us a ton on gas - thanks Sara!!!!

This is the bottom of a fallen redwood. I could have crawled inside, but wasn’t feeling that brave!

Dave in the redwoods - he finally had a legitimate excuse to use “big” and “wood” in the same sentence!

Sexy beast!

Our friend Betsy went to the University of Oregon in Eugene, so we stopped by for a look as we passed through. Betsy is a very enthusiastic U of O supporter (she once bought a bunch of us Oregon t-shirts when we went to watch a Cal/Oregon game!). So Betsy - this is for you! Go Ducks!!

While we were in Portland, we took a ride to the Columbia River Gorge to see waterfalls and Mount Hood. The waterfalls were great! Mount Hood, however, was a little shy……..

Did you ever doubt there was a Weed, CA?

And Tahoe - ah, Tahoe. I love Tahoe!

Of course, when we got home, the cat was VERY happy to see Dave. Even me, too! She was underfoot so much for a few days that I must have stepped on her five times! After that, she was not as excited to see me.

All in all, the perfect ending to a terrific first year of marriage! Love you Dave!
