Not too far from Sellwood and Lake Oswego is Oaks Park Amusement Park on the Willamette River in Oregon. We used to take our kids (Scott, Todd, and Tracy) to this park when they were ages 4 to 12. Thirty-five years later we took our grandchildren (Camryn, Bryson, Brooklyn, and Addison). The pictures show clearly what a great time we had. Addison screamed every time the Frog Hopper moved. The attendant told her, "You're the best screamer we've had all year!" Bryson and Brooklyn were the bravest on the most swirly twirly rides! They were a little "green" on the ride home. Camryn was a real trooper watching out for her little sis and hanging with her cousins.

We are still enjoying the beautiful Pacific Northwest weather. The ride home through West Linn and Lake Oswego was beautiful. I saw my alma mater Marylhurst University.
