CRAZY TIME ON THE ROAD...

Driving freaks me out anyway... but we saw some crazy stuff on our way to Oregon.

FIRST: Still in Utah, we were seconds behind a car who had rolled. Like close enough that people were climbing out of the vehicle! So scary.

SECOND: Barely in Oregon we see smoke clear up the road. As we pass we see it is a truck on fire. Who knows how that one happened.

THIRD: We were actually a few days into our vacation when we get stuck in traffic. Then about an hour later, we pass a crumbled trailer and truck who had rolled off the freeway also.

Not only that, we had like 3 other crazy almost accidents happen right in front of us. Including some stupid teenage Idaho boys who were trying to hit the orange construction cones with the car door. Must have been drunk. Lol.

Bizarre stuff. Glad to be home and safe!! (Not my pics)

OREGON TRIP - PART 1

Oregon in such a fun place to get away! Highly recommended. Clark and I decided to start a tradition that when we go on vacation, we will pick a place that neither of us have been before. And turns out, Oregon was our first pick. Thanks to all the friends and family who helped us fill our trip with fun ideas and activities!

Feet in the sand is the best!
