On this adventure, we brought both Chloe and my mom's dog Carly. While walking past the pavilion, we noticed that the flag was at half-staff. M asked why, but I suggested she ask her dad since I was on a media break. Despite the world's problems, it's good to get out and enjoy God's beautiful world for a change.
It was a beautiful sunny day with lots of dogs playing and birds chirping. Emma was excited about the playground, and we had fun playing on the slide. M had a good laugh when Emma couldn't figure out how to turn off the water after she had to pee.
Speaking of "going," M wanted to leave because it was getting too hot. While Chloe has been enjoying lots of walks lately, Carly doesn't get out much. She enjoyed soaking up the sun, and many parkgoers stopped us to tell us how beautiful she was.
I'm thankful that the barista took the time to tell us about Oaks Bottom Park. It's a Sellwood gem with stunning views of Oaks Park and the Willamette River.
