Vacation pics
« on: September 20, 2009, 01:05:06 PM »
Went to the PNW (Vancouver/Portland mostly but stayed at a beach house for a bit too) with the fam to visit the inlaws before we move to Texas next month.

Anyway, it was my two year olds first visit to the beach and a much needed break before we ramp up for the move.

My son and I running from waves.






First ice cream at the Tillamook Cheese Factory


Crater Lake Pano (full size 175 x 21")


Wizard Island at Crater Lake NP


Boat cruising around Wizard Island


Returning from a hike outside Mt St Helens, WA


My son Kyle and his namesake, Grandpa Kyle




Camera was a Canon 30d with a 24-105 L-series lens. Post processing was levels adjustment and sharpening in most cases.

Nice pics.  Glad you got to spend some time with the family before moving!

Cool pics! The ones of your son are definite keepers!

Where in Texas are you moving?

San Angelo (west Texas south of Abilene....ie, middle of nowhere)

I lived there about 12 years ago for USAF training, and would rather not go back...especially since we only bought our house 18 mos. ago.

Great pics, esheato.  Treasure these moments with your little one.
Whereabouts on the coast were those pics taken?

If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Coastal pics were in Gearhart, Oregon. Wish I could have went swimming, but the Pacific up there isn't swimmin' ocean.

Up the road? I'm fairly certain I won't need much convincing to get out of town...what's there to do in that part of Texas?

My first thought on seeing those pictures: that looks like Sunset Beach.  ;)  I know that area well.   =)
