So life has been a complicated mixture of happiness and grief as we've been travelling through California, seeing the sights as a family of three. Kika has had a difficult time adjusting to being the only dog, as her general lackluster demeanor has suggested. But we have certainly "done" the West Coast, visiting Malibu, Santa Barbara, Santa Monica, San Luis Obispo, Monterey, San Francisco, the Redwood Forest and now back to Oregon. We have almost retraced my drive down from Oregon to California, with a few well-placed detours to check out additional sights.
We arrived in Oregon last night and are staying at the house I lived at this summer. We're having a special dinner tonight to introduce Ads to all the friends I made this summer, so I'm pretty excited about that.
We'll be heading north in the next few days to visit our friends in Corvallis, Portland and Olympia before heading back to Michigan via route 90 (gotta stop off and see the four heads at Mt. Rushmore, a long-time dream of Adam's and mine). Looking forward to seeing friends in Michigan and family back east, but I have to say, I am sold on moving west. My heart will stay out here when it's time for us to leave.
Will post pics from our travels as soon as we download from the camera.
