Long weekends are great

They are especially great if you get to do something out of the ordinary! My roommate and I traveled to the West Coast for a friend's wedding, which was of course beautiful. I also got to visit my brother who recently moved back out there. Once I figure out how to make smaller files out of my pictures, I'll try to post some (anyone have advice???). We went to the coast, where the water is FREEZING, walked around Portland, OR for a while and got to see the city, and visited Mt. Saint Helens, which was also amazing. Now I have to recover from the very short red-eye, do laundry, and repack for a 50-mile walk this weekend! I may be MIA for a bit...
