You're off to Great Places!
You're off and away!
You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose.

I used to give this book along with a personal note and a "feed me" post card to my high school seniors. Now a dear friend gave it to me for Ocoee....life has a way of coming full circle. This page is dedicated to my love of travel-which I hope to impart on Ocoee and Atticus. She is what I have been waiting for...the ultimate traveling partner in crime. Take a peek at where we have been...

Portland, Oregon and Seaside 101 Hwy Oregon
Ocoee's favorite activity at Seaside Beach was chasing the seagulls that wanted her snacks.
It was a perfect, sunny winter day in Feb....with warm to us Alaskan temps in the 40s and 50s.
Above is the famous Haystack Rock from Cannon Beach another stop along our Oregon HWY 101 day trip while hubby worked.
Hanging out in Elephant Park....not the official name but has the best Elephant sculpture and close to The Benson Hotel where we stayed. The elephant has a baby elephant on it's back and symbolizes prosperity and good health for children.
Ocoee didn't like swinging in the kid friendly swing so she and I swinged together which she loved.
