Robb & Liz's Travel Log

Time for Another Break Since the last trip things have been pretty insane at home.

We Need a Break! This has not been our easiest summer. We are doing a major addition to out house which involves one room and a fairly good sized shop.

Settling In After a week in this area, we are getting settled in and familiar with what it has to offer. This week is looking like it will be a moderate pace. We still want to get a paddle in with our kayaks and a hike would be nice. There doesn’t seem to be a … Continue reading "Newport, Oregon – Week 2"
