ALPINE SLIDE

I have been dreaming of roller coasters since Oak’s closed last September. But because of Covid-19, we can’t go on any this summer.

Then…I heard about the Alpine Slide on Mt. Hood. Half a mile of twists and turns down a mountain!

It opened with limited capacity, so we bought a ticket online and headed to the hills!

First, you get to take a ski lift up to the top. It was scary! But how cool is that slide??

We went two times and it was so fun. I’m already planning for my longer trip around the whole park next summer!

MEETING SAKURA

I drove all the way to Seattle and crossed 23 rivers to meet my brand new baby cousin, Sakura! Isn’t she so cute??

Oh yeah, I played with Kenji, too! I was taking a little rest, but he kept on jumping on the bed.

So I decided to join in, too.

We played with Hugs, too…

…and just looked handsome.

I also created an amusement park in his house. This ride is called the Stair Coaster.

And Kenji has a pool! He’s the most amazing splasher and water gun shooter ever.

And then I just wanted to look at cute Sakura some more.

After a while, I wanted to go for a walk around Kenji’s neighborhood. I navigated.

We walked more than one and a half miles! Kenji needed a camel ride home.

Before I went home, I really wanted to hold Sakura. She was so heavy and comfy.

Then I had my bellhop take my suitcase to the car. It was fun meeting you, Sakura!

My brand new baby cousin was born on July 2nd. Nana and Papa are up in Seattle visiting her right now. Isn’t she so cute? I can’t wait to meet you, Sakura!

KITTY SEARCH

I saw a sign in our neighborhood for a lost kitty. So I wanted to go on a walk to find her. We never found her. But we put the catnip back down on the deck to see if we can lure her in. The search continues!

FIRST POTATO HARVEST

One of our potato plants had dying leaves and stems. And that’s when the internet says it’s time to harvest! So we dug out our first homegrown potatoes. They’re little, but hopefully tasty!
