Eastern Or-gun
Uncle Pete had a reading scheduled at the university in La Grande so we used it as a pretext for a road trip in the spirit of our Oregon Trail fore bearers. But we took the minivan instead of a covered wagon.
Aunt Ella found a sweet ranch house where we stayed for two nights, living like western kings and queens:
We had a lot of fun exploring the big sky'ed terrian:
And there was a four cousin bath!
On the way home we stopped for a much needed break along the banks of the mighty Columbia river:
Ella held down the fort in the back of the minivan, but it was tough on Miki-deprived sleep:
And she succumbed to the sandman...
Rumor has it this is how most of the crowd at Pete's reading that night were looking as well!
If you can't get enough, there's even more coverage of this trip over here!

Isn't Ella beautiful? Wouldn't you like to wake up next to that visage? Well, you can't.
But not everyone was asleep at my reading! Some of them were texting and tweeting (not about the reading, alas).
did you erase my comment Arthur ?
some one erased my comment.
I was saying how great these pictures are especially the 4 Cousin Bath in twilight.
Arthur,
You erased the comment where I said when you came out of the tub I thought you were Jean Claude Van Damme and then you did that sweep kick that cleared the top of my head.
Arthur, you were a PILLAR of strength on this trip.
I erased no comments!
Were Art and Maggie in the front seat with Pete?
That combination of gas could kill a horse, poor Pete.
