The 50th Birthday

A few weeks ago we took a vacation to celebrate John’s 50th birthday.  We packed up Baxter and Betsy and flew off in his little red plane without much of a plan.

The first night we stopped in Bend, OR.  We had wanted to make it to Washington but after I started crying over a little turbulence we decided to call it a day.  Being in a giant tin can zooming through space while being held up by air molecules is scary! Anyway…….Bend, OR – you were great and I hope to see you again soon!

The next day we flew up to Bellingham, WA and stayed with some friends who have a house on the lake.  It was absolutely beautiful. The dogs got to run and play and frolic in the water and we got to totally relax for a few days.

And finally, we flew off to Sonoma for a few days of wine tasting, eating and exploring vineyards.  I kept telling John that it was the best “Not My 50th Birthday Trip” EVER!

And if you’re wondering, the dogs do GREAT in the plane!  Baxter excitedly looks out the windows and Betsy curls up in a little ball and says “wake me up when we get there!”

Hugs,
Jenny
