Lounging Around on Mary's Peak

     Have y'all been keeping up with my YouTube videos from my trip to Oregon? Well... if you haven't... click the word "YouTube" in the header and check them out (there are three weekly vlogs to see)! The point of me asking if you have watched them? Well, in the third and final vlog, Trevor and myself drove to Mary's Peak and we had some problems. By problems I mean we got stuck on a snow bank... on a cliff... on a narrow road... on the mountain. It was scary and I had a mini heart attack.

    

     Luckily, we were able to get unstuck and decided the safest thing to do was head back down the mountain and pull off at a view point! Our goal was originally to make it to the top and look out over Oregon, but I think in the scenario we were in... the view point was a great alternative (mainly because it was safe and my life wasn't being threatened on the edge of a cliff). We parked at an area that was about half-way up the mountain... it had two picnic tables and an outhouse, so I decided to lounge around! The views were nothing short of beautiful, as they always are in Oregon.

Frolicking in Florence

     Hey guys! I am officially back home in New Jersey reminiscing about my trip in Oregon. One of my favorite places to go while I am visiting the Pacific North West is Florence, Oregon (not that I wander all over the PNW or anything). It is such a sweet little town that feels very homey. When Trevor and I visit, we spend most of our time on Bay Street which is this street (obviously) that has all these cute little shops and restaurants on it! When the sun is shining, everybody is on Bay Street!

     We went over to the coast twice this past visit, and the second visit was the best weather I experienced out of all my time in Oregon! Between the sun, the subtle chill to the air, and all the people walking around... I just loved the day. Of course we made a photo opportunity out of it, so that is what I am here to share! Also, if you ever get the chance to visit this spot... do yourself a favor and eat at Bridgewater (also known as the Zebra Bar). The place has some serious curb appeal and the interior decor is a little quirky... which is not the point of eating there, but I thought I would throw in some extra detail. The food is freaking amazing. So simple, yet so delicious.  N o t h i n g  compares.
