Played to the music of Fraz Schubert – which is playing in our car – since it is a challenge to learn his music this month in the outdoor nature challenge, spring.
We headed up the western cascades to do a little shooting for the Hunter Education Class – I’m not sure what this hill did to anyone, but apparently it needs to be shot at several times – with several weapons.
We passed this covered bridge on the way up the mountain –so of course – on the way back we stop for a while, have some good discussion!
After a walk along this beautiful creek by the bridge – we come home to enjoy near 70 weather – with a BBQ – and then head to the Connie Hansen Flower Garden for a looksee with some out of town friends. On they way home the thermometer did read 70. 🙂 The flower garden is my favorite part of the day – so you get to scroll through these photos full size.
Nate spotted this persistent bacon winner in the parking lot – we were wondering if he went hunting for this guy, or if he had fallen off a windshield. . . . .
We only took two shots of this guy – but noticed when we got home that we got the hair on the fly’s um, rump. 🙂
After we left the flower garden we went to the beach, Nate has float fever, walked most of Lincoln City today – had a great time, but came home with empty pockets, save a few agates. 🙂
Oh – and at lunch – when we came home – we did the whole mom goes crazy cause the house is entirely trashed due to the going going going of the week. Nature studies are fun –but they leave little room for floor sweeping . . . . . Worth it though. 🙂
