We went to visit our Pecot parents up in Selma, OR at the end of July. It was fun to be there in the summer. We usually go for Thanksgiving and it is much colder then. We brought our friends Mike and Lauren up with us. They had always wanted to go to Oregon. Mike and Lynne have a large creek (below) that runs through their property. Since the temperature was over 100 degrees during our visit we spent a lot of time in the water.

This is the deepest spot in the creek. Jared thought it was a little cold. Mike obviously did not.
We made strawberry jam one morning.
We also killed and butchered 3 roosters and then ate them for dinner that night. Below is a picture of the chopping of the head by Mike.
Jared helped his mom and dad with the plucking.
And once done, it actually looks like a chicken you would buy in the store. 
One of our day trips was to the neighboring town of Cave Junction. We turned down a street called Tikilma ( a big hippie area) and drove until we reached a very cool hotel/ lodge of tree houses. That's right, every room is a tree house. We all decided we need to go back and stay the night. They had horse back riding, zip lines, and swimming. 
This is a map of the place. When you stay there, they put your name in the box by the tree you are staying in.
