I'm always working with ceramics so I'm always behind in posting. So I'm just now sharing our trip to see my sister and her family in Oregon in October so here's the trip.

On the way to Oregon we stopped at thrift stores for Dan to look for albums. He found this one which he didn't know existed.

In Oregon we went to see the dinosaurs.

Here I am with my sister and a neighbor child and the shortest kid is her great granddaughter.

The floor in the building where they held the dinosaurs was covered in dirt and dust was floating everywhere. I wished we all had face masks.

The kids could actually ride these. They walk!

Talk about a small world. Dan ran into his best friend since 2nd grade. He moved to Grants Pass and got a girlfriend with kids and they drove down to Medford for the dinosaurs and they also got Dan! Amazing.

While in Oregon I had my computer and I was able to see when I passed 5,000,000 views!!! That's fun because I'm a numbers person.

My great-great niece and nephew. These kids are smart and funny.

After four days it was time to return home. We stopped for lunch at Mary's Pizza Shack near Redding. We stopped there on the way up too. They have good food and salads.

This was our third trip to Medford this summer. When someone you love has stage four lung cancer you keep going to see them as often as you can. I have another friend who just had surgery for throat cancer. Bad things do happen and COPD is suffocation over time. It does happen. If you smoke please stop. You don't just hurt yourself you hurt those who love you.
