Kellen"s Camp GG & Papa Hugh, Sunriver,Oregon

This year for Kellen's week with us, we decided to go back to Sunriver, Oregon.  Kellen was born in St. Charles Medical Center in Bend, when our daughter and son-in-law lived in Bend.  We did all of the outdoor activities for summer that we remembered doing while living in Sunriver.  We went down the Deshutes river, had lunch on Mt. Batchelor, biked over 25 miles in Sunriver's bike trails, saw Bentham Falls, and white water rafted the "Big Eddy".  Georgia even got time to go to Sisters to shop for quilting materials.

Below are some pictures of the week:

Memory Lane in Central Oregon

In 1992 we purchased a vacation home in Sunriver, Oregon. After our daughter was married, she and husband Keith moved into it until they could find a house of their own. Our first grandson, Kellen, was born in Bend. Our daughter's family lived there until 2004. Thinking that our daughter and family would stay in Bend, we sold the Sunriver house and built a house in in Bend on a lot at 1376 NW Remarkable. When our daughter's family moved to Santa Clara late in 2004, we sold the Bend house and moved to Northern California. This week we returned to Sunriver with Kellen to see how things had changed. Below are pictures of our former homes in 2004 and 2016: 16 Big Sky, Sunriver, Oregon 2016 16 Big Sky, Sunriver, Oregon 2016 16 Big Sky, Sunriver, Oregon 2016 1376 NW Remarkable, Bend, Oregon 2004 1376 NW Remarkable, Bend, Oregon 2004 1376 NW Remarkable, Bend, Oregon 2004 1376 NW Remarkable, Bend, Oregon 2016 Hugh, Georgia & Kellen at 1376 NW Remarkable, Bend, Oregon 2016 View from Back Deck at 1376 NW Remarkable, Bend, Oregon

Beach Week, Coronado, June 2016

This June we rented a home in Coronado for a week of fun on the beach in San Diego. Besides beach time, we visited Sea World, biked all over town, and enjoyed wonderful meals.
