Summer Weekends in OR


Now that summer is here, the sun is out and our weekends are free to explore. A couple of weekends ago we visited Seattle: went to a few nice restaurants, went to Pikes Market and the first Starbucks location, took an underground tour, went up the Smith Tower, took a Puget Sound Dinner Cruise, and had brunch up the Space Needle.

The next weekend we went crabbing in Newport! It is so easy, rings are easy to rent and it is so much fun! We mostly caught females and small males that we had to throw back, but we did get one nice big dungeness male and a couple of red rock crabs. Enjoy the pictures!
