To Oregon!! Random Pictures

I promised Jay that we would make a trip to Oregon as soon as he was finished with school for the year. Jay's last day was May 21st and we left for Oregon the 22nd. It is a two day drive so we went by way of Boise. We stayed with Martha and Al and then headed to Ashland. It was weird not stopping in the Payette/Ontario area but we were on a mission to Southern Oregon.

Our visit to the high school resulted in Dianne offering her house to kids to gather so Jay could spend time and hang out with friends. She offered and the kids took her up on it, they invited 50 plus and on a half day notice they got a good group. Thanks so much Dianne and Dan! Their son Austin is one of Jay's friends.

We met with Linda our realtor and got Calvin our lawn guy set up.

Jay on the front porch. It was sad and emotional for us both to go into the house. Many wonderful memories of times with family and friends.

Shirley, Craig and Jay. The week went way too fast and we had to say goodbye and head back home. Thank you so much Craig and Shirley!! It was fun!

Dan, Jay, Margie and Pat. We stopped by the Daly's on our way out of town to load up stuff they had stored for us that we didn't have room for when we moved. Here you can see the Elk antlers that Craig stored for us and we have the bird bath and rocks that Margie and Pat kept for us.
Thanks to all and I took so many pictures that I couldn't put them all in but had a great time visiting and hope to come back again soon.
