Here we were in the middle of an Oregon winter. The sun was shining. It was nearly fifty degrees. We are waist deep in home projects and ready for a stay-cation.
Sunday morning started off lazily but the sun was too tempting to stay home.
McDonald – Dunn Forest is a short drive from our house. Using my mom instincts, I packed a light lunch and spare socks.
Sitting in the van is like a breath of fresh air. There is something comfortable, simple and refreshing about it. I think we all feel it.
The Vineyard Loop: Oregon Winter
It is a well traveled 3.4 mile route with a view from the top. We like to sit and stare off into the distance. The kids made up a game where they were having a Superbowl party for cats and dogs. They walked and talked the whole way.
We spent an hour and half walking and a half an hour in the van.
Van Life: Memories of Summertime
The kids took theirs shoes off and hopped up on the bed. They looked out the window with the door open and the sun shining in. I got the snacks out but they didn’t eat. CD and I ate the cheese and crackers until it was time to go. I am sure that they would have stayed up there looking out all day.
Sprinter life requires a different pace. It is good to be reminded that a slower pace is just fine too.
