in Parkdale. Now the regular camping has begun. Jake and Bede immediately began riding their bikes and playing with the other kids from the campground. We spent Friday evening at the Hart's campsite for a great meal and campfire. We opened a 1976 Trentadue Pinot Noir to celebrate. On Saturday, Mary and I spent several hours playing Cribbage and drinking some Abuelo, my favorite Panamanian rum, the Hart's had brought us back from Costa Rica. Scott spent most of the morning dialing in a few things on the Kyper. There are many little details to tend to. We had to pull over on the way here. Thank goodness Scott is like "McGyver" and can keep it running! 
The afternoon was spent biking and "cycling". Our Honda 90's are now named the "sickles" thanks to some humorous campers in our park. We went to the local brewpub, The Elliot Glacier Public House and enjoyed the fantastic view of Mount Hood. For dinner, we brought out the raclette grill......everything tastes even better when you're camping! Brickhouse and Siduri Pinot's and an AmByth Grenache were drinking pretty awesome too!
The view from the brewpub.....
The Raclette will get a lot of good use this summer. We discovered that ending with grilled plums is a perfect dessert!
