Cape Perpetua-Devil's Churn at the Oregon Coast

I love the ocean, especially watching waves. We went camping the second week of August with about 23 family members and I have had so much to do since I got back I haven't had time to share about it on my blog.
The last day was my favorite. The day we packed camp and came home. NOT for that reason--lol--but because we drove up the coast a ways to a place called Cape Perpetua, that Sarah and Kasey knew about. This was my kind of place! I could have sat there for hours watching the wave action! It was awesome!!
This is a clip of the Devil's Churn. It's a long trench in the rocks that the waves have carved out over the years.

Then we walked down below to the rocks. I guess the waves are always churning!.

Some of the waves would collide and shoot up in a twister-like motion. It was soooo cool!

This was the trail down to the beach area. It's kind of short but give you the idea of how pretty it is.

Kasey was throwing bread to the seagulls---again, very short, but gives you an idea. My picture card was full and I left the other one in the car! Drats!

Toby's Moon Boots...

Yes, little dog has little moon boots. I don't think he likes them too awful much. This is at Sarah and Kasey's house and they own 3 parakeets. It sounds like you are at a bird aviary! (and don't worry, it's not YOUR cell phone ringing towards the end of the clip!)

GO DOG GO!!

This post is for my son-in-law Kasey. He's driven Monster Trucks for his dad's company and another friend's company. He's got a real talent for driving this RC car. I thought it was funny how the dogs got involved in it. Go dog go!

Mormons Believe in Jesus Christ

So there is this cool short video clip on YouTube. Go and rate it and help it rise to the top when anyone enters Mormon in the search engine! =)
It's at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hi3rOugXqRw



At Meredian Magazine they are trying to help move up the ranking for good "Mormon" video clips to help down the ratings for anti-mormon clips. We can all help by watching and rating these clips. They are going to search for some of the best and bring them to their readers each week. Check out this article at:

My Crazy Son-in-law! LOL!

I was at Traci and Eli's house on Monday and Eli was anxious to show me this "potato gun" he's been talking about...that he built. When I saw it I couldn't believe my eyes. I said, "Eli, that's not a gun, it's a cannon!" He wanted to show me how it works so I said, "Run to my car and get my camera! I want to put it on my blog!" (that was because Traci was showing me some of the cute baby clothes she has been collecting.)

After some adjusting and a few minutes it was ready to go....

You can't tell from the video clip, but the potato exploded in the air and came down in lots of little pieces! I told him they would have the best potato crop around growing in their backyard a few years from now. (I wonder what the neighbors think! LOL!)
