Poppy and the heat wave
We have had a fun few days. My dad, aka Poppy, and his friend came into town from Texas. With them they brought their friend the heat. That's right. They thought they were coming to Oregon to escape the excessive heat, but instead just brought it to the northwest with them. At one point it was 107 degrees...an all time Portland high. Oh, let me also mention that we do not have air conditioning in our home. Fun stuff! Oh yeah, one other thing. Our electricity went out not once, but twice. Even more fun! It really wasn't that bad though and we did not let it stop us from having a good time. We just escaped the heat by heading to the beach and Mt. Hood. We were able to do some tide pooling and hiking. In fact, Harris did his longest hike to date, 7 miles! I think that is pretty impressive for an 11 month old. It was great having Poppy (accidentally wrote "Poopy" first) in town and can't wait until we see him again.

I'm glad to see you guys had a good time with your dad. I can't believe the heat up there. Glad you guys come from TX and know how to handle it.
