The Family Guide to Tide Pooling…

By Dana Leave a Comment

No such thing as star fish, this is really a sea star!

Our kids did not grow up visiting the ocean.  But it is now one of our favorite places to go! And one of our most anticipated activities on the coast is to go tide pooling! The first time that we ever tide pooling, we had no clue what we were doing.  It was still a magical time, and I love to look back at the pictures and relive the awe and wonder that we all experienced … [Read more...] about The Family Guide to Tide Pooling…

Oregon Coast Aquarium in Newport, OR – why we went back!

watching the sharks in the Passages of the Deep area in the Newport, OR aqaurium

One of the very first destinations that we stopped at on our first year out, was the Oregon Coast Aquarium, in Newport, OR.  Since that time we have measured all other aquarium visits against it, and I have often wondered if its high ranking in our esteem was partially influenced by it being our first ever aquarium visit!

Willamette Heritage Center

By Dana Leave a Comment

hands-on exhibit at the Willamette Heritage Center in Salem, OR

Part of our love of traveling is the opportunity it gives us to learn about new places and their history!  While we were in Salem, we were able to learn about the Willamette Valley's rich heritage (Oregon Trail buffs here, so it was right up our alley!). Off topic, but did you know that nearly everyone who has never visited the Willamette Valley area says Willamette … [Read more...] about Willamette Heritage Center
