Kayaking the Puget - Class 1 rapids

Just got back from a trip to Oregon to celebrate my cute nephew's 5th birthday! His birthday was on July 27th, but this was the first anyone could get up to celebrate. My mom was up for the event as well. I'll write a bit about the family portion of the trip later.

One of the days I was up in Portland, I ventured up to visit my friend Josie - who currently resides in a summer house of her parents' on the Puget Sound in Washington. It's GORGEOUS!! Seriously such a great view and great time was had just hanging out. The food, the margaritas, the laughs....SO FUN! Man I've missed that girl!...and Thor too (of course!)

That night - we went out on the kayaks. It was seriously the best weather ever. We saw seals and everything pretty up close (and of course I cracked out the "Loose Seal" Arrested Development joke perhaps more than once!) It couldn't have been a better trip to see my friend. Thanks Josie and Thor for your hospitality! Always good to see you guys!
