Since only 3 of you wanted to hear from us...

We had an incredible time in Oceanside, OR with Randall and Sondra Taylor (Wendy's parents). We rented a cabin across the street from the beach, and spent the time doing beachy things. Thursday we went down to the water and Papa and the kids went down into the water. We started to make sand castles, but instead switched to digging holes and connecting them with tunnels (always a fun thing to do) which reminded me of the beach the base of Coral Street on Balboa. We made smores that evening. Friday, we went to Cape Meares Lighthouse, Cape Lookout State Beach, and back to the real beach. The cabin had a skim board, and I remembered watching Peter do that on Huntington Beach, and thought I could do it to. It was a miserable failure. However, the water was spectacular. We went in, and found we could walk out 50 yards into the water and be up to just our knees. After getting in up to your waist the water felt great.

Below are some shots from the trip.

So, I was looking at the picture of Katherine, er, I mean Katie. I realized she is no longer a baby, she is looking like a girl.
