Kalamath Falls Oregon


We went on a wonderful trip in June from the 13 to the 20th. It was so great to get away from the house for a whole week and relax. It was a family reuion with my side of the family and just my immediate family.

The condo was at the Flying Y and it was wonderful. I was the best condo that we had ever been to that belonged to World Mark. My parents were getting rid of their time share so we all wanted one last horrah with it.

Our condo was right next to the tennins courts, play ground, and swimming area. I really wasn't in the mood for much swimming but the kids enjoyed it. It was the perfect spot. The kids got to play with all their cousins and we had many a problem with them running out the door and going down the street. The locks on the doors just did not stay locked.

Because the condos were right next to the golf course and it was on the side of a mountain it made you feel like getting up and doing something instead of laying around and being lazy. I went on several bike rides which were wonderful. We saw snakes and birds everywhere of a hundred different kinds, and deer that would come out and stare at everyone. IT was beautiful.

I also have been preparing for a half marathon and I wanted to stick with it so thanks to the willingness of family members to come with me I still got in the running. There was a 3.1 mile loop around the golf couse that we ran along.







Swimming is best when you have friends to go with. Lilly was doing pretty good learning how to swim. I was impressed.


We also to Crater Lake which I will show pictures of on another post because I saved those oics on my parents computer, and we went to the California Lava Beds. There was some great caves there that we walked around. Cameron was a little scared because it was dark and and he heard there might be bats and other scarey things inside.

I had to walk through the caves with Miah on my shoulders, and let me tell you, that was a good work out. We explored down these tunnels that we had to crawl to get through them. I had to go lowerer than everyone else and try not to catch Miah's head on the poky ceiling. It was fun and the perfect cool temp inside.


I love to go on trips and so do my kids. Lilly wants to go on a trip every weekend( so she tells in her nightly preyers). I am thankful we were able to go but I did miss my husband. He was not able to come with us because of work and we were sad to leave him, but I tell yo what it was just what I needed.

How much are your parents selling their world mark points for? My mom is looking to buy more.

How fun! I love family trips. I would love to take some pictures for you. I'm out of town pretty much this whole month but I'll try and call you when I get back. If life gets too crazy and I space it... which is always a good chance... give me a call. I get back the 27th. Call Abrie if you lost my number. P.S. Cute kids!
