Fun in the Park

October 26, 2018

Westmoreland Park We call it, “The Really Fun Park”.  Not only does it have all kinds of big things to climb on, it’s also got a big section of sand and concrete water channels and a pump at the top to create all kinds of rivers and lakes.  WAY FUN!

Playing in the snow, Jan 2018

January 20, 2018

I loaned Chloe out to some old white-haired guy to take her up to play in the snow on Mt. Hood. She’s still pretty timid on the sledding. May be a few more years before the snowboarding lessons.
