Trying on Daddy's shoes.
An afternoon at the park.
Mowing the lawn with Uncle Ryan.
This is the face Fisher made when mom said, "Road Trip!"
A visit to the Port Orford Coast Guard Station (no longer active). This is a 36' surf boat--they are no longer used by today's Coast Guard.
We hiked down the stairs that lead from the old station to where to boat house used to be. A LOT of stairs...not an active trail anymore so, they were a little over grown so, we were only able to go halfway down. This is the view from the halfway point.
While hiking down the stairs we spooked a deer in the grass. It shot right up the face of the cliff next to us when it saw us. We stood here for a while to take in the view and then heard the sound of a whale coming to the surface to take a breath. He was down below in this little cove feeding in the kelp beds.
And now, the climb back up. I (Mom) was packing Fisher and he helped during the climb by making all of my grunting sounds for me. Seriously, with each step I took, Fisher said, "Ugh, ugh, ugh...". Like it was a lot of work for him or something...
We counted 257 steps on our climb back up and we only went halfway down. Just think of the guys that used to be stationed there that had to climb those stairs, packing gear, several times each day!
Here mom is, sucking wind on the climb back up.
The view from the top. After the climb back up the stairs we hiked around on the trails that took you out to the head and to where the viewing tower used to be. We came around a corner early in the hike and caught two people with their pants down...right off the side of the trail! Oops!.....AWKWARD! (Sorry, I didn't get a picture.)
Fisher, now on Dad's back, goofing around in the backpack.
Too cute.
