Fun with Friends

We spent the weekend at Carrington/Christine/Sydney/Ole's vacation getaway house near Parkdale. It was tons of fun, and the weather cooperated on Saturday, too.
Work before play! Everyone got busy chopping firewood.
For some reason, this picture would only load sideways, but it shows Christopher on the newly installed zip-line that had us zipping through the air between two trees that were 125 feet apart.
This, of course, was a real highlight of this trip!! Totally fun!
Nate gets some love (high five and a kiss at the same time!) from Bailey, their awesome dog.
Dinner time!
Looking down over the evening action. If you look closely, you will see two blurry whizzes going by. That's Nate and Chris on the plasma cars.
As we were finishing dinner, we heard the distant rumble of the Mt. Hood Railroad cruising by on it's dinner cruise. It was time to bundle up again and go to the tracks to place lots of coins down. We knew that the train had to come back by later in the evening.
Nate inspects his coin loot. Mission accomplished! He successfully smashed some pennies, dimes, eco-carwash tokens. Below, Christopher rides the zip-line. We're thankful for the fun weekend, and for great friends with really cool vacation homes. :)
