May 17-24, 2009 Oregon Coast Vaca.
Karen decided she needed a vacation so we went to the Oregon Coast,


Sunday we drove to Boise and spent the night with my sister Sheri. We got up that morning and drove to Midvale Idaho to visit some friends that moved up there from American Fork. He invited me to come back sometime and go Salmon fishing with him on the Salmon River. They are only 1 hour away and says I can come home with 70 lbs of fish. Sounds like fun. We then traveled to Redmond, Oregon and spent the night.

The next day we traveled to Creater Lake and visited the sites there and spent the night in Grants Pass Oregon. We then travel down into Northern California and spent some time on the coast and visted the Giant Redwoods National Forest site. The trees were amazing some were over 15 feet in diameter and 300 feet tall.

We then traveled up the coast to Golden Beach Oregon and spent two nights there. One day we took a jet boat ride up the Rouge River for 64 miles round trip. We should have taken the white water trip. We were disappointed with this trip. Next time we will be a little more daring.

On Friday we travel to Portland, went to the Protland temple that night and got us a room right next to the temple. I was surprised it was quite resonable priced at $59.00 a night. We then drove to Boise and spent Saturday night with my sister Sheri and then drove home on Sunday.

Both of use were glad to get home.
