Oregon

Having a summer before the real world starts was great. I suppose its not 'the real world' if your parents still help you out...but its a world without exams. So that's nice. Zion is the most amazing national park I've ever been to. My boyfriend is working there this summer: check out the house he lives in!

I got to stay in this amazingly beautiful park in a sweet house for freeeee. And the hiking was great: The Subway, The Narrows, Angel's Landing, Kolob Terrace, and Kolob Reservoir.





So that was UTah! And now I'm living in Oregon. Its a beautiful small town in the Rogue Valley. My co-workers are awesome. A couple from France, and Two guys from these parts. We get to see some amazing areas- huge douglas-firs and Ponderosas, even some sugar pines! I'm working an 8-day on 6-day off schedule with 10 hour days. Lets just say it makes you appreciate the weekends even more. But I get to travel on my days off! And I get to return to my other home, Arcata,CA, so that's lovely. I'll put up pictures soon. You can see all of the smoky mountains and pear orchards. Love love lovely
