Pictures from The River

Every year many of Missi's family visits a place on the McKenzie River called The Wayfarer. It's a quaint, old-fashioned "resort," where the activities are things like horseshoes, croquet, volleyball, etc...It was a fun coupla days away from Eugene and the kids had a great time exploring and playing. Here are a few pictures.


The kids LOVED going out on this Huck Finn-style raft that they had at the place in a little man-made pond. We had to push ourselves along with a pole as we looked for bullfrogs.





Drew lost a tooth while we were were at The River, but he was relieved to discover that the tooth fairy could even find him while he was sleeping in a tent at a place up the McKenzie River!

Every night one family from among the big group who visits The River is responsible for making dinner for everyone else. This year the Hillier's put on a Hawaiian luau and it was a HUGE success.
