April 29. Skied with PJ today. Is was 24 degrees and dumping. Most definitely not spring skiing!
This past weekend Hunter graduated from his one year program at Montana Wilderness School of the Bible. It’s been a fast 9 months.
Abbie and I flew out to Montana and attended the graduation and then we drove home with Hunter in his rig. He will be home for a couple months getting surgery on his wrist + recovery.
We snapped a couple of cool picks of the windmills and farmland on the north central Oregon plateau on the way home.
Abbie and I are trying to grow some herbs for medicine and tea. We started our seedlings in little seedling greenhouses.

Presidents’ Day weekend 2024. Abbie had a cheer competition in Seaside so we decided to make a mini vacation out of the event!
We arrived Friday and watched the goonies with the kids Saturday we explored around the Astoria area to see some of the famous scenes from the movie.
We did some great hikes and walks along the coast. Here is deadman’s cove across the border in Washington.

This weekend there has been a deep cold snap across the northwest!
Hunter is near a town called Augusta Montana and they had temps down to -57 F. They had fun throwing hot water inter the air watching it instantly freeze.
Kelly and Abbie were in Portland this weekend. It usually just rains in the winter but they had temps down below zero with windchill and snow on the ground!
PJ, Noah and I were in Bend. We also had some cold temps -6/7 F all day on Saturday with over 12 inches of snow. Still cold today in single digits (around 5) so a little warmer and sun!
Blue bird day on the mountain. Snow still a little light but a great day with the whole family (minus Hunter of course) along with the Gormly clan and their friends the Foster family.
Mountains are getting snow but just rain in town (along with sun). Full rainbow with partial double rainbow!
The Caldera boys and girls varsity teams made the Oregon state championships this year. Noah had a great race. Their team finished 8th in the state! He finished 3rd on his team (teams consist of 7 runners) 51st out of the top 94 runners in the state! A great finish for the season. We are so proud of him!!
Noah had a great districts race today and it was great that Lulu and Papa were there to see him race. Their team (caldera high school) made the state championships (2 top teams from the district make it to state). The other lady in the one photo is their teams head coach.
