We live amazingly close to the largest state park in Oregon...Silver Falls...where waterfalls abound. If we haven't taken you there when you have come to visit, shame on us. It's fun to go hiking now that Mateo can mostly walk on his own.
I love watching Matt teach Mateo about things in nature. His personality is so inquisitive, and Matt is so patient, explaining the biology behind what he is asking. I've learned a ton (or re-learned a ton as the case may be) by hanging out with them!
Silver Creek, the one that runs through Silverton, has a prominent position in the state park. After we got all hot and sweaty, Matt and Mateo stuck their feet in the creek to cool off.
Mateo's fascination with butterflies (see previous post) continues...
We had to move over on the trail so a dirt mover/trail builder/really cool machine from Mateo's perspective, could go by...lucky for us there was shade to rest in.
Make sure you ask to see the falls when you are in town...we'd love to show them off to you!
Hugs, Sarah & Matt & Mateo
