I went to Oregon and Washington over Memorial Day weekend. It was cold and similar to Utah weather: wet and miserable. We visited Crater Lake which was absolutely beautiful, even though there was more snow than I had seen all winter, stopped at my grandma's house in Toppenish, Washington, and then drove the rest of the way home with Gar. It's so nice to have him home.

| This was taken on May 29th. There was SO MUCH snow, and it was still snowing when we arrived. I got a lot of strange looks as I had no winter coat and flats on-- like I knew to bring my parka in May! |

| Toppenish is known more for its fruit canneries. But this is a field of nothing. And I happen to think is pretty. |
