Week 50 - Oregon city - December 11 - December 17, 2023

I took a walk in the woods - first in several weeks.  After weeks of heavy rain there were a bunch of snags that had toppled.  Sighhhhhh...a lot of work

I started staining the windows in the kitchen.  Luckily, I found the perfect gel stain, Ipswich Pine, which matches the existing wood perfectly.

Jessica, our first baby girl, turns 50 this week.  Really hard to believe.  All the local siblings and spouses went to the Hive Social restaurant to celebrate.  We had a great time....and a fried chicken sandwich and fries which I strongly recommend.

On Saturday Warren, Copeland, and I went to Corvallis for the opening of the women's gymnastics season.  It was fun to see all the new gymnasts and of course, Jade Carey.

We had lunch at a Japanese restaurant....but the employees all seemed to be Chinese.

On Sunday, Jessica, Bev, Travis, and Warren played O Holy Night.  They were nearly divine.

And...for this week's cat photos
