FALL





Today was a perfect Fall day in Portland so we headed out to the pumpkin patch less than five minutes from our house and enjoyed a variety of Fall activities - tractor rides, hay maze, staring at farm animals and, of course, pumpkin hunting!  We came home with two nice, large pumpkins.
This past weekend, we also did a quick overnight with our friends at McMenamins in Forest Grove and enjoyed the Fall colors as we drove through Oregon wine country.  Edie joined us on the trip and Cora spent the night with the grandparents!
And the highlight of our Fall so far....Dave completed the Portland Marathon last weekend and we were all there to cheer him on at mile 20 and again at the finish line.  Go, Dave, Go!

We recently had family photos taken in the Columbia Gorge by a wonderful couple who travel around the world with their two kids taking pictures. I just love how they turned out!

Cora and the boys

Dave's friends, Scotty, Ryan and Danny, have been taking good care of us this week. We're thinking about asking them to move in long-term! Ryan is currently making us a fancy breakfast and Danny is still trying to find us the perfect Subaru Forrester to purchase.

Salar de Uyuni Tour

Southeast Bolivia is home to the world´s largest salt flats. This amounts to huge expanses of flat land surrounded by snow capped mountains. Big lakes, super dry deserts, and llamas, alpacas and vicuñas everywhere. As you can see from the photos, there are a few interesting things going on here. First, and most notable, is the huge population of flamingos. There are three different species that summer in Bolivia and winter in Chile and Argentina. But what makes it even more interesting is that the salt flats are roughly 14-15,000 feet above sea level. We are way up here. That makes the hills and mountain surrounding the plains almost 20,000 feet. Mt. Everest is less than 30,000 feet. This is home to flamingos? Yep, lots of em.
