OR: Mary's Peak

The last two times we were there, we tried to hike Mary's Peak, the mountain that my little town sits at the base of, but both times it didn't work out. It rained once and then the road was closed the next time. So we finally did it. You can drive close to the top and then hike a mile trail to the top. It was gorgeous. The views are incredible, you can see forever in all directions of the Wilamette Valley. On a clear day you can see the ocean on the horizon. Some of our best friends recently moved back to the area, and we called them up to hike with us. Huge photo dump comin' at ya! The drive up was incredible, watching as we were eye level with the clouds, and then rising above them.
Our kids got along so well, it was crazy. In the first second they saw each other they were playing. We spent the whole next day with them too, and they were calling each other cousins.
I've known Janean since our 4th year at girl's camp. We roomed together in college, and married roommates. I can't tell you how good it felt to be with people who make me feel at home, and like no time has passed.
On the way down Tanner fell asleep on Josh's shoulders.
