Every (clear, sunny) day we get to see this amazing mountain. Mount Hood. It is huge and so beautiful. We can also see Mount St. Helens and Mt. Rainier. I am still in awe that we live here. I am used to seeing these mountains in science books. Every time I see them, it shocks me how beautiful and big they are.

We took a trip down to the beach. It was not a great day for the beach. It rained all day long, we still had a good time. We stopped and saw a lighthouse, played in the damp sand, found clams on the rocks, went through a tunnel, and enjoyed the beautiful view. We will have to go back on a warmer day. It was a fun place.
