Ashley’s first night here, she got super sick, so we did absolutely nothing on Monday. Nat was off work and Ash mostly slept. When she woke up we watched Charlie St. Cloud together and then discovered a really good place for Chinese takeout nearby, so it actually wasn’t a bad day! Tuesday, we went to Indian Beach for a hike (Ashley is an A+ rock scrambler) and saw lots of little crabs, got lunch in Manzanita, stopped at Hug Point, and then spent a while hanging out in Cannon Beach, where we found MORE BUNNIES THAN EVER. What is with those Cannon Beach bunnies?! I love them. So much. Nat went to work Wednesday, so Ash and I got ~mani pedis~ and went to Multnomah Falls and then the Bonneville Fish Hatchery–so much fun watching the salmon jump. We stopped by Vista House for the sunset, and then ran around Pittock Mansion in the dark for a photo of Portland.

Ashley brought her new camera and got some great photos! Some of these are from her camera. It was fun to see Tilly through a telephoto lens. The waves were so great that day. Now all our visitors have come and gone and it’s back to normal around here. I’ve still got some catching up to do, and lots of photos will be taken in the coming weeks as it’s the BEST MONTH OF THE YEAR ?
