Oregon 2007

It was a great Iverson Family Reunion at the Ross Iverson Family Farm in Woodburn Oregon. We enjoyed the people, lake, cow train rides, sand, duck races, slide, food etc. The picture at the left is at the Iverson farm.

We enjoyed our first night in Oregon at a hotel in Woodburn after driving there in one day from Draper, UT. We played in the pool for a couple hours that night and the next morning. Then drove to the reunion in time for the fun.




Later, that Saturday, we drove to the Oregon coast to Dorothy Iverson's family beach house. We had a wonderful week there, exploring the coast and playing at the beaches. Here is the clan that stayed with us at the beach house. Andy and Nicole, Kate, Sherry, Chad, Kathy, Carson and Audrey (Gary not pictured).


On Monday, we spent the day at Oswald Beach. Chad and Audrey built a hole and the kids loved playing in it. Here they all are standing in the hole.


On Tuesday, we had a fun hike to the top of the cliffs around Oswald Beach. Audrey imagined that we were in a fantasy world on the hike with a castle and beautiful rooms for princesses. We had a great time. Carson also enjoyed the trip imagining things along the way. The trail was wonderful with thick green forest foliage the whole way.
On Wednesday, we did more beaching, then we drove to Cape Meare to see the lighthouse. Audrey especially was excited to see the lighthouse. We climbed to the top of it, then walked over to the octopus tree nearby.
We started for home around noon on Thursday, stopped in Ontario, OR for the evening, then finished the trip home on Friday. It was a fun adventure.
Here we are looking out at the beautiful Oregon Coastline.
