Ore-gon

Baleen offered me the following deal before we left for Oregon. You can skip out from baby duties on Saturday morning as you pedal your bicycle in the woods, but you can't pedal it all the way. You have to meet us along the lake for a hike.

Turns out that the meeting point, a little over halfway at mile 60, was 4,500 feet into the ride's 6,400 feet of total climbing. I gave up the last 30 miles of pure downhill, but I missed another 1,900 feet of rolling climbing around the other half of the lake.

Deal, I said. If you bring The Dragon Boss and some magic Oregon blueberries, I'll meet you at Cleetwood Cove just after noon for a hike down to a spot about 20 feet above the lake. Then we'll jump in 'til we're about four feet deep.

Griff,

I notice people don't often leave comments on your blog, but that doesn't mean we're not reading. These once-every-three-days-posts aren't cutting it for us. We want more words and pictures!

Thanks,

Concerned reader from Del Mar

I was curious if you ever considered changing the layout of your
site? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
But maybe you could a little more in the way of
content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text
for only having 1 or 2 images. Maybe you could space it out better?

I seldom comment, but i did a few searching and wound up here "Ore-gon".
And I do have 2 questions for you if you do not mind. Could it be only me or does it look like a few of the
responses look as if they are left by brain dead people? :-P And,
if you are posting on other sites, I would like to follow
everything new you have to post. Would you make a list of every
one of all your community pages like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?
