Do you ever want to get away for the weekend but don't have an extra 4 or 5 hundred bucks laying around for a resort hotel? Have you ever considered going camping? Yes in February.
My family and I will often pack up and head out to one of the many Oregon State Parks that offer Yurt camping. The cost is reasonable and the accommodations are quite comfortable!
You see yurts, although they look like a glorified tent are actually quite comfortable...even in winter. They are always dry, they have electricity, and yes they are heated. We even bring our laptop or portable dvd player so we can watch a movie if it gets too wet to go outside. The Oregon coast or Cascade mountains are fabulous recreation opportunities right at our doorstep and a great way to enjoy them is in a Yurt.
So, the next time you are looking for a get-a-way on a budget. Reserve a Yurt!
Beaverton Oregon Parks – Willow Creek
Nature Park - By Todd Clark
Are you looking for a little
exercise and a place you can
take the whole family? This is the park for you. This
hiking trail is something
you can have your kids bring their bike, scooter, or even roller
skates, like
our 5 year old did today, and not have to worry about them getting
dirty no
matter how much it has rained recently.
You see, Willow Creek Nature Park
is walking path that is
either paved or a wooden foot bridge the entire way. Not
once did we get our
feet dirty even though it had been raining for the past 5 days. (This
made it
pleasurable for me because I didn’t have to worry about cleaning out
the car
later.) It was mostly flat pretty much the entire way which makes for
no complaints
from the kids and the length it isn’t too long for those short, little
legs
either.
If you are looking to get
out for a nice nature hike with the kids, then I
suggest you check out this park as it is pretty good size
yet still only takes
about 30 minutes to walk from one end and back and has plenty of
parking at one
of the many entrances to the park.
I
hope you enjoy this park as much and my family and I did.

Yesterday, my daughter’s Girl
Scout troop met at the PETCO
in downtown Beaverton and that is where they met Chris, the person at
the store
in charge of the PETCO field trip. I have to say right
from the beginning,
Chris had the kids and the parents interested. (I actually learned a
few things,
like Bearded Dragons are social lizards and the sell out quickly
because of it.)
The kids got to see
birds, mice, rats, snakes, lizards, a tortoise, and fish up
close and in some cases even hold them. I have to say,
prior to going on this
field trip, when I thought of PETCO, I thought it really as only a
place to buy
food and stuff for my pets. I thought of it as a box store for pet
supplies and
the animals they had were in cages all day and never handled. BOY WAS I
WRONG!
It was clear that these animals
were handled and they
enjoyed it, because unlike a lot of pet stores, these animals were used
to
people and craved the attention. I have had pet ferrets in
my life and this is
one animal that if you bought it at a pet store you could count on
having to
train it not to bite for the next 3 months. Not the ones from this
PETCO store!
They clearly knew Chris and couldn’t wait to be handled and petted by
the kids.
If you are planning to get a
small pet, I wouldn’t hesitate
sending anyone to this store. These pets were loved and
well taken care of by a
staff that was not that of a normal pet store. The kids learned a lot
and
though they don’t carry pig food, (we have a pet pig) they are still a
store
that showed the kids how to hold and love an animal that will be a
source of
joy for years to come.
If you are in Beaverton,
stop off and say hi to Chris and meet the animals he
clearly cares so much about. This is clearly more than
just a job to him. I
truly felt he cared for every one of these animals just like they were
his own
and were more like fostering them until they found a home than just
selling
them.
