Twilight

It has been a long three weeks since Maui. We are in Oregon visiting Don for the summer. Our apartment is tiny, two bedroom/two bath. One TV, but it is nice. The weather has been in the high 60's but the humidity is about 200%, so we are all hot. Trying to come up with things to do with the kids is getting rough. We have been to the zoo twice, the science museum and the movies.

Fathers Day, we slept in. Sleeping-in in Oregon is really easy. The sun sets at about 10pm so we all have been going to bed at midnight or later. Even Nick sleeps in till about 9am. The other two kids sleep in later, 10-11am. It has been really nice. After lunch we decided to drive around to all the twilight locations. We got the list of addresses from a friend of Don's who daughter came up here to stay with Don while she tried out to be an extra in the new movie. She didn't get the part but gave us the list of sites. Don and I had a great time driving all over Oregon and Washington looking for the sites. The kids were a little bored. We spent 5 1/2 hours in the car and drove 218 miles round trip.

We saw five locations, and plan on this weekend seeing another two, The water fall at the end of the movie and the baseball field. Some of my friends say that I need professional help and other agree with me that this was the coolest road trip ever. I guess it depends on if you have ever read the books or not.
