Oregon

I took a few pictures of Kate's and my trip to Oregon, but mostly just on the way there. It was SO much fun there that I didn't even think to take out my camera and snap some pics of my GORGEOUS , not to mention INTELIGENTE, cousins and their beautiful families! Thank you Chelsea & Mike, Peggy and Doug, and Jade for making our trip to Oregon memorable!

As we were driving to Oregon (why are the speed limits so low in OR?) the sun was setting and I had to pull out my camera. Good thing we had stopped to fill up!

As we passed Medford, OR we entered a thick fog of smoke. We had to turn off the air in the car the smoke was so dense. We never saw any fires, but the smoke had an amazing effect on the sunset. I unfortunately couldn't capture exactly what I saw, but here's an image that comes close.

Kate and Chels took some people pictures while we were there. Hopefully some of them work out since I didn't take any. It really was an enjoyable trip. I must have eaten my weight in blueberries while I was there, not to mention picking enough to last me 'til next year. It definitely would be a trip I would make again!

The one of the smoke really doesn't do it justice. If you think about it though... the two pictures were only minutes apart and the blackness was from the smoke not the setting sun.
