Neskowin, Westwind, May 2007

The Jon Janske clan had another great year at Westwind! Westwind is the YWCA camp that we rent out on the Oregon coast between Neskowin and Lincoln City. It's in a private cove that's only accessible by boat during high tide. You must cross a river to get to it, and hopefully you'll be able to see it in the panorama.

Jon and I did the Cascade Head hike which leads up to a bluff where I snagged the panorama view of the cove. We also did a shorter hike with the group to a bluff on the other side. That's where all the green hill people pictures are from.

A great time was had by all and we can't wait until next year. Jon and I attended our first Westwind trip in 2005.

Homecoming, Ohio and Michigan, October 2006

Jon and I decided to come home in October. We went to Swanton, Ohio for Nick Jankowski's memorial celebration, visited his Mom, Mia, Dad and Denise in Toledo, Ohio, and then went up to Bay City, Michigan for a day of hanging out with my family and friends. It was nice to see everyone, and I even made a stop at Dacia and Kate's! We had a great time.

Oops....pics not ready

I just had to put this one in there. It's the "before" picture of the nice group shot. As you can see, Noah's really excited about the picture, and Bradley has an aching back because he's getting old.

Newberry Crater, late summer 2006....

I can't remember if this trip was at the end of August or early September. Todd, Kirstin, Jon and returned to Newberry Crater for a relaxing weekend. We didn't take very many photos, just some cool sunsets. Our campsite was right at the lake, so as soon as we saw the impending beautiful sunset, we were quick to grab our cameras. Enjoy.

natural sky light

As we approached the exit to the cave, we came upon a natural sky light (aka...hole in the ceiling). After walking underground for over an hour it was nice to see green moss and light.

what a cheeseball

I had time to goof around in there.
