HOLIDAY SEASON

SO THIS YEAR THE FAMILY DECIDED TO DO CHRISTMAS EARLY, LIKE A WEEK EARLY, SO MY AUNT INVITED US TO HER VACATION HOME IN WHITE SALMON FOR THE LONG WEEKEND. IT'S ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS THERE WITH TONS OF THINGS TO DO, BESIDES RELAX.

THE QUAINT LITTLE TOWN BOASTS A YOGA STUDIO, SOME SMALL SPECIALTY SHOPS, AND JUST OLD TOWN CHARM. PERFECT PLACE TO WALK THE DOGS EARLY IN THE MORNING AND PICK UP A COFFEE.

THE WHOLE REASON MY AUNT PURCHASED HER HOME IN WHITE SALMON IS BECAUSE OF ALL THE OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES THAT ARE SUPER CLOSE, LIKE KIAKING, HIKING, AND SKIING. PLUS IT IS CLOSE TO HOOD RIVER SO SHOPPING AND WINE TASTING ARE A QUICK DRIVE AWAY.

THIS IS THE GORGEOUS VIEW OF THE STEEL BRIDGE OF DEATH (IF YOU CAN'T TELL ALREADY I HATE DRIVING ON BRIDGES) TO GET FROM OREGON OVER TO WASHINGTON AND A BEAUTIFUL OVERVIEW OF WHITE SALMON.

ALL IN ALL WE HAD A GREAT CHRISTMAS WEEKEND RELAXING, HIKING, WINE TASTING, AND PLAYING BEATLES ROCK BAND- I HOPE WE DO IT AGAIN NEXT YEAR!
