So we got back from Oregon lastnight, or early this morning about 2 am. Oh my bug, the drive to Oregon was horrible, it seemed like it went on forever, nothing but a straight shot and nothing to look at...wow. By the time we could look at the beautiful scenery that we have been told about it was pitch dark. We stayed at our friends apartment in Portland, Oregon and it was very nice to get away and relax. Our friends haven't really been around too long to see a lot there, so they weren't sure what to do. All we wanted to do is drive and check things out, so we went downtown to get a little looksie. There is this one place my sister suggested, she got married at this place called Voodoo doughnuts, she said that we had to go check it out and try all the different doughnuts they have there. We bought a dozen while we were there and they had some wierd choices. They have this one that is very popular, it's a maple bar with bacon on it...i wouldn't eat it, anyway they have capn crunch, m&m's, coco puffs and a bunch of other kinds. Saturday we decided to go out, way out..we went to get some pumpkins at a pumpkin patch which was so fun. We took a boat ride out to the patch, picked our pumpkins then rode a train back to our cars, it was a lot better than buying them plane ol jane at the store. After the patch we went toAstoria to see the Goonie house (awkward, the owner kept staring at us) then we saw the coast, sea lions and had fish and chips on the shore. After dinner we went to Sunset beach and barely got there in time to get some nice pictures. It was so gorgeous there, nice, breezy and just perfect. We went to walk along the shore and the water came up on us too quick to get away from, that water was freezing, but once you get past the painful feeling and you go numb, it's amazing.
