This entry covers our trip from Fort Bidwell, CA to Valley of the Rogue, OR, where we spent three days, and the five days we stayed in Coos Bay, on the south Oregon coast. Our last night in Fort Bidwell saw snow and wind. We had planned to take a shortcut over Fandango Pass, but decided given the snow, that we had better take a longer, but less elevated route to our next stop at Valley of the Rogue (named for the wild and scenic Rogue River), in southwest Oregon. Although it snowed on the higher passes, the road remained dry and safe and we arrived mid-afternoon at the Valley of the Rogue State Park and settled in for a three day stay. On 9 April, we left Valley of the Rogue and traveled north on ... read more

We've spent two days packing and are almost ready. The kids will be taking us to the airport after Church today. They've never been alone this long (3 weeks) without us and we've never been alone this long without them. We all are looking forward to it but I'm sure we will miss each other.......eventually :-) ... read more

So if you're reading this, you already know that I'm going to Hawaii. How cool is that?! I'll be in Oahu for the duration (which, after much research, I've confirmed is not the Big Island ). Home will be a three bedroom house right on the beach with a fully equipped kitchen and high-speed internet access (food, shelter, and high-speed, the necessities of life!) The house is on url=http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&ct=res&cd=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fmaps.google.com%2Fmaps%3Fhl%3Den%26q%3DEwa%2BBeach%2C%2BHI%2C%2BUSA%26um%3D1%26ie%3DUTF-8%26sa%3DX%26oi%3Dgeocode_result%26resnum%3D1%26ct%3Dtitle&ei=MZb1R7n8N6jmpgSM-8m_DQ&usg=AFQjCNHZJwzckGF4UQsUHIcnYkxCW-y7jw&sig2=kvaPk1y40gnTr8nB7xmgSA Ewa Beach in southern Oahu.

PUPPY KOKO'OLUA We're so excited! Spring is almost here, bringing with it change, growth and rebirth. But for Erin and I, spring brings with it something new this year....a puppy. In particular, and 8-week old puppy named Koko'olua (meaning 'companion' in Hawaiian). Lua or lu-lu for short. Here are some pictures of her. She is a Mini Tri-Colored Australian Shepherd. And she is a bundle of uber-cute love. She's a licker, a cuddler, and a non-barker. Everything is great so far and we're excited about the present and future with our new human-canine family. Hope everyone is healthy and happy. Write soon and come and visit us if you can. We'll do the same. Matthew and Erin... read more
