Great American Road Trip: Day Five

We started our day in Bend back near the river, in the Old Mill District shopping area. How lovely, to have a city with a lovely river flowing right through the center!

We then took a side trip to see Tumalo Falls.

There were a few miles of dirt roads as we got close, so Cora had fun hanging out of the sun roof.

Oregon is full of rivers and streams! 

Here are the falls.

Look at this awesome photo Stace took!

Violet was in her element here - she loves being out in nature and woods. 
 

We then drove up to the Portland suburb where our friends Casey and Bradley live with their two children.

Casey's sister, my friend Kelly, and her family were in town visiting, too. We had a great night catching up, and Casey and Bradley graciously lent us their guest room for the night.
