Day Trip!!!

Saturday morning I woke up sick and tired of all of the icky smoke. I'd just about had it with being couped up in the house all week because I didn't want to go out and breathe the deadly air. So while Matt was reading the paper I suggested that we take a day trip and get away from the house, the smoke, and any responsabilities that Saturday may have for us. Matt loved the idea and within the hour we were ready, the car was packed and we were on our way to Ashland! We had such a fun day! It was so nice to get away from the smoke and to just hang out and have a date with just the two of us.

Here's Matt doing a great job driving:)

Here is our favorite landmark along the freeway! Go "State of Jefferson!"

Here is the totally cute Italian cafe where we sat out on the patio and had lunch:

Here's a view of the Shakespear theaters from the park:

And here we are happy to be having such a wonderful day
(smoke-free!) Saying goodbye to Oregon:

All of the great views that California had to offer us on our way back. On our way up we could see Mt. Shasta but on our way back it had completely disappeared!!!

This is my "sad to be going home" face:
